Thanks for the hint, we are going to check this. You are welcome to share if you have any hints about a possible bottleneck in you scenario. On Mon, 11 Dec 2017 11:21:58 -0700 Beau Sapach <bsapach@ualberta.ca> wrote:
Yes, we've done some testing. With an oVirt VM running on a host using 10Gb ethernet copying data to a physical machine also using 10Gb ethernet we don't see network utilization exceed 800Mbits or so. A bit of research online yields some experimentation done by others who used SR-IOV to achieve 10Gb from a VM.
I'm not sure where the bottleneck is, possibly in the VirtIO driver.

Is there an indication that the VMs will not take advantage of 10Gb?

Hello everyone,
I see here: https://www.ovirt.org/blog/2017/09/introducing-ovirt-4.2.0/ that version 4.2 will have OVN support. Does anyone know if this will allow VMs to take advantage of 10Gb networking without needing SR-IOV?
