Hi,
Not a direct answer – but I think something to consider:
-I am not sure what virtio is there ‘out of box’, but I imagine that you need to check
what is latest virtio-win package
containing NetKVM driver.
(
https://fedorapeople.org/groups/virt/virtio-win/direct-downloads/archive-... ?)
-I would imagine that main driver of higher virtio-net performance is support and use of
multiqueue.
I don’t know about Windows 2019 , maybe it is matter of configuration.
Check out

Konstantin

Subject: [ovirt-users] Max network performance on w2019 guest
One customer sees 2,5gbs on 10gbs adapters for w2019 VM with virtio using iperf3.
Instead with Oracle linux 8 VMS of the same infra sees 9gbs.
What is the expected maximum on windows with virtio based on experience?
Thanks
Gianluca
