Markus,

So all CPU threads are blocked by the main loop. The main loop is busy draining 
IO requests from all drives while there are other block commit jobs active... 
It looks like currently QEMU just can't live merge more than one drive 
simultaneously without blocking VCPUs.

As workaround you can delete disk snapshots one-by-one, and then delete 
disk-less VM snapshot. The Storage tab has Disk Snapshots sub tab where you can 
remove a specific snapshot of a specific disk.
