Since several months I have performance problems with my Windows 10 virtual machine.
The host system (Intel Core i5 750, 2.8 GHz; 16 GB RAM; 3 TB WD Red harddisk for the VMs) with openSUSE TW (Qemu 4.0) should be strong enough to run a single Windows 10 desktop in a virtual machine. Other VMs (Linux, FreeBSD) are running without performance problems.
But if I start Windows 10 as a single Qemu KVM guest system, the desktop of the host system sometimes becomes unresponsive during Windows boot. The performance of the Windows 10 desktop is bad, approximately 10-20x slower than native and the host system performance also becomes worse.
I had the performance problems with Windows 10 1809. Now I installed a fresh Windows 10 1903 machine. The performance is better compared to the old VM, but also bad.
I implemented the common performance hints: - enough hard disk (55 GB) and RAM (2-5 GB) and CPU cores (2) for the guest system - all available Virtio drivers (disk, network, balloon, spice, tablet) installed - disabled disk cache (currently cache='unsafe', but also tried cache='none') - HyperV options enabled (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1775702)
Here is my Windows 10 1903 quest setup: http://paste.opensuse.org/view/56376915
Does anyone has a working configuration on TW or configuration hints for me?
This is a support question and should be on the openSUSE support mailing list, not the general openSUSE development list, as a rule of thumb generally posts here should affect more then one package, or most users. -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adelaide Australia, UTC+10:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
