The display (spice) updates much faster and more "smoothly". Most
notibly when using Arch VMs. With QXL, I have an extreme delay when
typing. This vanishes completey with virtio-vga.
using which client? remote-viewer? on which platform?
qxl needs drivers, not sure if Arch has that…it should have, but for Windows you
definitely need to install them. If they’re not all right it falls back to vga emulation
which is then slow indeed
