what makes you think it's memory?
a hunch ?
It's not ballooning - it's not configured. It's unlikely to be memory related. What's the application?
Yes, I just realized that ballooning is not configured (during windows ballooning driver installation).
Mentioned application is a software for switching voip calls. There is a bunch of helper appliactions (which are working fine), problem is with main application server/deamon. It is develop internaly by company I work for.
We use this applications on many physical and wirtual servers (including kvm and xen on different hosting providers) and never see such behave as on ovirt.
oVirt is using KVM under the covers.
Yes, I'm aware of that. It's the reason I choose ovirt.
What version of KVM have you tried it on and how is it configured (eg. libvirt xml or qemu command line)
I can't say. We use hosted environment with web panel only (elastichosts.com)
I will try to start the same machine on different host with "clean" libvirt.
I'd try combinations of virtio-net -vs- emulated rtl driver and virtio-blk -vs- ide
