Thanks for your nice answer Eric
@Dietmar or anyone that can answer, please let me to do a questions:
Note:
These questions is because I am involved in a project and the idea is to use
several RAID 10 in the same PVE Host for use of a VM with MS-SQL Server, and
for the backup a single SATA hard drive will be used on an NFS Server, and i
don't want get performance degradation or at least a minimun of degradation
1- But as the buffer need RAM free, what are the RAM requirements for use this
buffer?
2- The requeriments of buffer RAM will be always static in any case, or will be
dinamic?
3- If is dinamic, which will be the formula that i need to know for obtain a
nice performance? (for buy the RAM that will be necessary)
4- Will get I at least a minimum of degradation in this case (obviously while
"KVM Live Backup" is running)? (see the note above)
Best regards
Cesar

Subject: Re: [pve-devel] KVM Live Backup performance
Anyways, I will try to upgrade KVM to 1.7 first (many backup related
changes).
We can then test again and try to optimize further.
Cesar, from my testing KVM 1.7 fixed the backup related performance issues.
See archive:

The buffers related to Live backup are for the data sent to the backup, not
the data sent to the VMs disk.
The data sent to the disk will still use whatever cache policy you have set
for that disk.
