And please let me add one more thing to the network topic:
whenever you check the network performance, do it bi-directional.
We just came across another problem with virtio-net. Even on a Xeon with Intel
i350 cards a single virtio-net interface cannot cope with 100 MBit
bi-directional traffic.
If you want the full bad picture, try this - a single host box with two guests
(all linux):
< host >
<switch1> - <vbox-guest1> - <vbox-guest2> - <switch2>
GB LAN virtio GB LAN
Try to route traffic through such a segment in both directions at the same
time.
