<div><br></div>I've installed a Windows 2008 R2 guest with virtio disk, and all the drivers from the latest virtio iso. I've also installed the spice agent drivers.<div><br></div><div>Guest disk access is horribly slow, Resource monitor during Windows updates shows Disk peaking at 1MB/sec (scale never increases) and Disk Queue Length Peaking at 5 and looks to be sitting at that level 99% of the time. 113 updates in Windows has been running solidly for about 2.5 hours and is at 89/113 updates complete.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I can't say my Linux guests are blisteringly fast, but updating a guest from RHEL 6.3 fresh install to 6.5 took about 25 minutes.<br></div><div><br></div><div>If anyone has any ideas, please let me know - I haven't found any tuning docs for Windows guests that could explain this issue.</div>
