Re: [ovirt-users] Ovirt VM Performance abd CPU times

These hardware is exactly the same, no changes in bios, reinstalled from scratch. The versions in the "old ones" are: RHEL 5.6 kvm-83-224.el5 libvirt-0.8.2-15.el5_6.1 kmod-kvm-83-224.el5 kvm-tools-83-224.el5 libvirt-0.8.2-15.el5_6.1 Kernel: 2.6.18-238.1.1.el5 #1 SMP Tue Jan 4 13:32:19 EST 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux I the ovirt "new" ones: RHEL 6.5 qemu-img-rhev-0.12.1.2-2.415.el6_5.14.x86_64 qemu-kvm-rhev-0.12.1.2-2.415.el6_5.14.x86_64 qemu-kvm-rhev-tools-0.12.1.2-2.415.el6_5.14.x86_64 libvirt-0.10.2-29.el6_5.12.x86_64 libvirt-client-0.10.2-29.el6_5.12.x86_64 Kernel: 2.6.32-431.23.3.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Jul 16 06:12:23 EDT 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux I haven't gone into the details but the command line generated by our old software is like 2 lines of text while in the ovirt nodes for the same type of machine it is 10 :) X On Thu, Oct 30, 2014 at 11:07 AM, Gianluca Cecchi <gianluca.cecchi(a)gmail.com > On Thu, Oct 30, 2014 at 10:46 AM, Xavier Naveira <xnaveira(a)gmail.com&gt; > >> I haven't tested the performance differences with or without HT.
