[ovirt-users] ovirt snapshot issue

Interestingly enough this happens only to a Windows VM with two disks
(60GB, 500GB). This is reproducible every time a snapshot is taken.
If I snapshot only one disk, regardless if it is the small or the big one,
the snapshot completes fairly quickly and the VM is not rendered
unresponsive.
Seems to be a race issue with libvirtd.
