I'm just wondering if the tested interfaces are bridged because I've
seen some issues with
network througput and bridged interfaces on my local system (F19).
Basically, if an IP is configured on the bridge itself ( in oVirt this
is the case if the network
is configured as a VM network ) latency goes up and throughput goes down.
Can you rule this one out by using an unbridged interface?

We have an IB IPoIB network for storage. Thats why you see a throughput
at 400 MB/sec. For a cross check I mounted the NFS share through the
ovirtmgmt interface (our normal trusted internal network) on a 1GBit
Intel network card.
The throughput is exatly the same - throttled at round about 16MB/sec:
Maybe that is no problem at all for the VMs. But in my case it would be helpful
to know the switch to temporarily flood the channels for fast migration.
