It appears that VDSM changes the following params:

vm.dirty_background_ratio = 2
Any idea why? Because we use cache=none it's irrelevant anyway?
It's not really irrelevant, the host still uses disk cache. Anyway,
there is BZ[1] with a presentation[2] that (imho reasonably) states:
"Reduce dirty page limits in KVM host to allow
direct I/O writer VMs to compete successfully
with buffered writer processes for storage
access"
I wonder why virtual-host tuned profile doesn't contain these values:
$ grep vm.dirty /usr/lib/tuned/virtual-host/tuned.conf
vm.dirty_background_ratio = 5
