Thanks Nir for this analysis.
we currently focusing on bug verification for 3.6, afterwards, we can
prioritiez this effort.
master branch includes some changes related to these topics?
i think it will be better to open a bug for each of the bullets, i'll
take care of it.

Hi all,
I noticed that Eldad posted profiling result from 144 cores / 144 vms run:
See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=1128028
Looking at the profile bellow:
1. Why _rtnl_link_alloc_cache is so expensive?
called only 389 times, but the most expensive call
2. Creating DomainDescriptor seems expensive - is this xml.minidom?
3. guestagent.py:84(filt) is very expensive - we probbaly want to backport
7091bde guestagent: Speed up xml character filtering, can shave about
17% of cpu time in this run.
4. pthread.py function will disapper from the profile if we replace
pthreading with cthreading:
https://github.com/nirs/cthreading
5. Why do we see xmlrpc at the top of the profile? Is this the cost
of mom calls?
Eldad, can you repeat the same test with current master?
