@Serge @Chris - So it sounds like this _could_ make it into Lucid? Anyone I can bribe to make that happen?
As an aside, I have been running LTS versions for 8 years and I must say it seems we need a different priority scale for LTS. This bug renders the use of kvm in 10.04 very painful and the plan would be to let that exist for 5 years? Feels like a lot of key improvements are overlooked because they don't make your machine explode, but from a sys admins perspective, it feels like the risks of running the latest versions so bug fixes trickle in outweighs the missing bits in an unmaintained LTS :/ This issue + this one (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/555981) makes for a sad day. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/524447 Title: virsh save is very slow Status in libvirt virtualization API: Unknown Status in QEMU: Fix Released Status in “libvirt” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “qemu-kvm” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “libvirt” source package in Lucid: Won't Fix Status in “qemu-kvm” source package in Lucid: Won't Fix Status in “libvirt” source package in Maverick: Won't Fix Status in “qemu-kvm” source package in Maverick: Won't Fix Status in “qemu-kvm” package in Debian: Fix Released Bug description: ================================== SRU Justification: 1. impact: 'qemu save' is slow 2. how addressed: a patch upstream fixes the case when a file does not announce when it is ready. 3. patch: see the patch in linked bzr trees 4. TEST CASE: see comment #4 for a specific recipe 5. regression potential: this patch only touches the vm save path. ================================== As reported here: http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir- list/2009-December/msg00203.html "virsh save" is very slow - it writes the image at around 1MB/sec on my test system. (I think I saw a bug report for this issue on Fedora's bugzilla, but I can't find it now...) Confirmed under Karmic.
