Hey.

When running a guest in the following setup, I observ a "massive"
performance decrease after a couple of gigabytes of transfrerred data.

other guests keep running fine (no regressions) and nothing unusual is
observed on the host.

fedora 8 host, kvm-72 (user and module)

fedora 9 guest, all updates.
        nic 0, vtio:
        subnet a
        samba listening

        nic 1, vtio:
        subnet b
        iscsi initiator running

        samba shares a mount point, pointing to an iscsi target.


now pulling/pushing about 80GB over samba results in a drop from about
60/70Mbit to about 1/2Mbit of troughput.

The problem is reproducible.
The problem is solved after a reboot of the guest. Just restarting
networking doesn't help.
Guest's dmesg doesn't say anything about problems. No errors in
ifconfig.

Has someone observed something similar?
