Good catch. I missed the 'Unaligned AIO/DIO' message. However, why would this cause other processes to start hogging the CPU? Also, I created a new Windows image and I still get the 'Unaligned AIO/DIO' message but the system does not get into the same state where multiple processes will comsume

I'm really not certain, but I would guess other processes would start hogging the cpu because their writes are being serialized with bulk writes by the guest? It seems some filesystems (XFS, ext3?) should be immune to this, so if you have a spare partition then you could try using a different

Once in this state, the system doesn't recover by itself. When I kill kvm, things seem to go back to normal but if I start it up again the CPU usage of the same couple of processes goes up again, almost immeditately. Only a reboot fixes it so that it stays stable for a longer amount of time. Only

Thanks for reporting this bug. After this happens, do you have to reset the system, or does it get better after awhile? Is it kvm itself, or libvirt, which is taking the cpu time? Do you usually have only one vm up when this is happening? Is there anything interesting in syslog? ** Changed
