Does -no-kvm-irqchip or -no-kvm-pit makes a difference? If not, please
grab kvm_stat --once output when that happens.

Also run "readprofile -r ; readprofile -m System-map-of-guest.map" with the 
host booted with "profile=kvm". Make sure all guests are running the same kernel
image. 

The profiling should be easier to understand if you have 1 guest spinning and 
remaining ones idle.
