Just as a quick shot:

You really may want to check which IO scheduler runs inside the
vm. you probably want deadline or noop instead of CFQ, which
can have a huge performance impact inside the vms.

you can check the default scheduler with:
dmesg | grep scheduler
you should get an output similar to this:
[    0.841989] io scheduler noop registered
[    0.841990] io scheduler deadline registered (default)
[    0.842028] io scheduler cfq registered
