Confirmed that doing
kvm -drive file=lucid.img,cache=unsafe,index=0,boot=on -m 512M -smp 2 -vnc :1 -monitor stdio and doing 'savevm savevm5' takes about 2 seconds. So, for fast savevm, 'cache=unsafe' is the workaround. Shoudl this bug then be marked invalid, or 'wontfix'? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/741887 Title: virsh snapshot-create too slow (kvm, qcow2, savevm) -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
