Package: autopkgtest
Version: 5.28
Severity: normal
I get this warning when building packages with the autopkgtest
sbuild-qemu backend:
qemu-system-x86_64: warning: 9p: degraded performance: a reasonable high
msize sho.
It looks like this is an upstream issue, but I wonder if we might not
be able to do some better tweaking for this. This is discussed here
upstream:
https://wiki.qemu.org/Documentation/9psetup#Performance_Considerations_(msize)
where they suggest changing from the default 128KiB to tens of
*megabytes*. The example uses:
msize=104857600
which is 100 megs, if i'm not mistaken.
