Hi.
Thanks for your feedback.

Did you ever had troubles with virtio drivers? I started using them but had
some issues, so eventually stopped even if not sure that was the real issue.
Also from discussions on the kvm ml I found out there's no big performance
improvement compared to the e1000 emulation.

Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2620 0 @ 2.00GHz, RAM DDR3 1333 MHz, disk MegaRAID SAS
2208.
The host OS is Ubuntu 12, libvirt 0.9.8, qemu 1.0+noroms-0ubuntu14.15.
