ps aux | grep VMNAME and you can see differences I guess :) probably next to none (but I didn't check really)
We run all Windows VMs as "windows PV", but have also implemented additional "Hyper-V Enlightments flags for KVM" in XML definition for all "OS types" that have word "Windows" in it ( https://www.linux-kvm.org/images/0/0a/2012-forum-kvm_hyperv.pdf , http://blog.wikichoon.com/2014/07/enabling-hyper-v-enlightenments-with-kvm.html ) - Windows 2008 and Windows 7 likes to crash with BSOD often in busy VMs without these KVM flags... Simply install Windows as Windows PV, during boot, insert ISO with recent VirtIO drivers in order to load SCSI/VirtIO drivers, and you are fine. Upon boot, again install VirtIO drivers for NIC, and then proceed normally to generate Windows template....sysprep and the end and you are done.
