Hi guys, It seems the biggest limiting factor of my GPU Passthrough setup is the disk. Does anyone have any tips to optimize it? Also, which is faster, having the disk with if=virtio, or having the disk with if=none and a virtio SCSI controller. The raw image is 250GB on a 500GB ext4 hard drive, which is encrypted with dm-crypt. Below is my current script.
Thanks, Sarnex #!/bin/sh export QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=pa qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm \ -m 5120 \ -cpu host \ -smp 8,sockets=1,cores=8,threads=1 \ -device vfio-pci,host=01:00.0,x-vga=on,multifunction=on \ -device vfio-pci,host=01:00.1 \ -vga none \ -drive file=/media/500GB/win10.img,id=disk,if=virtio,cache=none,format=raw \ -device vfio-pci,host=00:12.0 \ -device vfio-pci,host=00:12.2 \ -device vfio-pci,host=00:16.0 \ -device vfio-pci,host=00:16.2 \ -soundhw ac97 \ -rtc base=localtime \ -netdev user,id=net0 \ -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=net0 \ -device virtio-scsi-pci,id=scsi
