Summary: Virtual network (set up via TCP socket) dog slow, but vde ok

Initial Comment:
I've got two kvm virtual machines that I connect to gether via a virtual 
network:

1. A samba server (Kubuntu 7.10), whose network I set up with -net 
nic,vlan=1,macaddr=00:1B:FC:1C:00:01 -net socket,vlan=1,listen=127.0.0.1:1234

2. A Windows XP client, whose network I set up with -net 
nic,vlan=1,macaddr=00:1B:FC:1C:01:11 -net socket,vlan=1,connect=127.0.0.1:1234

The Windows XP VM has joined the Samba VM's domain.
When a domain user logs in, it takes litterally _minutes_ until its profile 
data is copied to the client, and same thing to copy it back to the server on 
logout.

Setting up both with VDE, it's *much* quicker (only a couple of seconds, rather 
than minutes for login/logout).

I also tried udp mcast networking, but couldn't get both VMs to communicate 
with each other. A tcpdump on the host shows traffic on port 1234. However, a 
tcpdump on the Kubuntu guest shows no traffic (not even arp) when I try to ping 
it from the windows VM
