Hi Nir, thanks for the answer

The nfs server is in the host?
Yes, i choose NFS to use as storage on ovirt host

- Is this 2.9GiB/s or 2.9 MiB/s?
Is MiB/s, i put the full test on paste bin
centos guest on ovirt:
http://pastebin.com/d48qfvuf

centos guest on xenserver:
http://pastebin.com/gqN3du29

how the test works:
https://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-benchmark-your-system-cpu-file-io-mysql-with-sysbench

- Are you testing using NFS in all versions?
i am using the v3 version

- What is the disk format?
partion size format
/    20Gb xfs
swap 2 Gb xfs
/dados rest of disk xfs   (note, this is the partition where i save the ISOs,exports and VM disks)

- How do you test io on the host?
I do a clean install of centos and do the test before i install the ovirt
the test:
http://pastebin.com/7RKU7778

- What kind of nic is used? (1G, 10G?)
Is only a 100mbps :(

We need much more details to understand what do you test here.
I have problems to upload the benchmark test on orvirt to novabench site, so here is the screenshot(i make a mistake on the last email i get the wrong value), is 86 Mb/s:


And the novabench on xenserver:

- For Xenserver - detailed description of the vm and the storage configuration?
The host is the same(i install xenserver, do the tests before i install centos), the VM i use the same configuration of ovirt, 2 cores, 4 Gb of ram and 60 Gb disk(in the default xenserver SR)

- For ovirt, can you share the vm command line, available in /var/log/libvirt/qemu/vmname.log?

Hi
i am trying Ovirt 4.0 and i am getting some strange results when comparing with Xenserver

*The host machine
Intel Core i5-4440 3.10GHz running at 3093 MHz
8 Gb of RAM (1x8)
500 Gb of Disk (seagate st500dm002 7200rpm)
CentOS 7 (netinstall for the most updated and stable packages)


*How i am testing:
I choose two benchmark tools, sysbench(epel-repo on centos) and novabench(for windows guest, https://novabench.com ), then i make a clean install of xenserver and create two guests(CentOS and Windows 7 SP1)

*The Guest specs
2 cores
4 Gb of RAM
60 Gb of disk (using virtIO in a NFS storage)

The nfs server is in the host?
 
Important note: only the testing guest are up on benchmark and i have installed the drivers in guest

*The Sysbench disk test(creates 10Gb of data and do the bench):
# sysbench --test=fileio --file-total-size=10G prepare
# sysbench --test=fileio --file-total-size=10G --file-test-mode=rndrw --init-rng=on --max-time=300 --max-requests=0 run

Host result:            2.9843Mb/sec
Ovirt result:           1.1561Mb/sec
Xenserver result:   2.9006Mb/sec

- Is this 2.9GiB/s or 2.9 MiB/s?
- Are you testing using NFS in all versions?
- What is the disk format?
- How do you test io on the host?
- What kind of nic is used? (1G, 10G?)


*The novabench test:
Ovirt result:          79Mb/s
Xenserver result:  101Mb/s

We need much more details to understand what do you test here.

- For ovirt, can you share the vm command line, available in /var/log/libvirt/qemu/vmname.log?
- For Xenserver - detailed description of the vm and the storage configuration?
