There shouldn't be any data loss, since the guest expects the network to be lossy. But this can cause performance drops due to retries. Most likely the guest's rx queue length is greater than the host's. You might try ifconfig vnet0 txqueuelen 1500 (and so on for every interface) or perhaps reducing the guests' txqueuelen. -- Do not meddle in the internals of kernels, for they are subtle and quick to panic. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
