[ovirt-users] Spam Re: Spam Latency

Hi Maurice,

I have the same issue, and already read several other people noticing
the same. IIRC (sadly I do not find the mails anymore, I keep the list
only for one month) this may have something to do with log file noise,
setting them to 'warning' may help, see below for an example.

Since I observed high network IO with little no disk traffic, I suspect
the disk image is converted to RAW and compressed again; making oVirt
neartly unusable with multi terrabyte disk images (my test took about
3hs/TB).

Can someone clarify the export / template creation process?

Thanks,
Daniel
