Hi!

i checked the io performance with bonnie++ on an domU.
With "file:" i get a goot result (nearly the dom0 results):

Version 1.03 ------Sequential Output------ --Sequential Input- --Random- -Per Chr- --Block-- -Rewrite- -Per Chr- --Block-- --Seeks-- Machine Size K/sec %CP K/sec %CP K/sec %CP K/sec %CP K/sec %CP /sec %CP server123 440M 52335 93 46364 3 214480 0 54105 77 709159 0 +++++ +++ ------Sequential Create------ --------Random Create-------- -Create-- --Read--- -Delete-- -Create-- --Read--- -Delete-- files /sec %CP /sec %CP /sec %CP /sec %CP /sec %CP /sec %CP 16 20533 36 +++++ +++ 19130 10 23464 49 +++++ +++ 16243 14

Then i try the same with just changed to "tap:aio:" and i get a much slower result:
