    <p>Hello Gianluca.</p>
    <p>As I mentioned previously I am not sure it has anything to do
      with SPICE at all, but with the amount of memory the VM has
      assigned to it. Proff of it is that when you access with via any
      Remote Desktop protocol it remains slow as if the amount of video
      memory wasnt being enough and have seen it crashing several times
      as well.</p>

                          <p>Hello Gianluca</p>
                          <p>Resurrecting this topic. I made the changes
                            as per your instructions below on the Engine
                            configuration but it had no effect on the VM
                            graphics memory. Is it necessary to restart
                            the Engine after adding the
                            20-overload.properties file ? Also I don't
                            think is necessary to do any changes on the
                            hosts right ?</p>

            <div>Hello Fernando and Michal,<br>
            </div>
            <div>at that time I was doing some tests both with plain
              virt-manager and oVirt for some Windows 10 VMs.<br>
            </div>
            <div>More recently I haven't done anything in that regard
              again, unfortunately.<br>
            </div>
            <div>After you have done what you did suggest yourself and
              Michal confirmed, then you can test powering off and then
              on again the VM (so that the new qemu-kvm process starts
              with the new parameters) and let us know if you enjoy
              better experience, so that we can ask for adoption as a
              default (eg for VMs configured as desktops) or as a custom
              property to give<br>

                  </span>there were no changes recently, these are the
