Issue #2577 has been reported by gjs278.

----------------------------------------
Bug #2577: virtio-blk iops performance is cpu limited on high end devices
http://bugs.dragonflybsd.org/issues/2577

Author: gjs278

Priority: Normal

Target version: 


Qemu 1.5.2 on Gentoo AMD64 kernel 3.10.4 host with an i7 980x processor at 4.2ghz

qemu-system-x86_64 -machine accel=kvm -cpu host -drive file=/dev/fioa3,if=virtio,cache=none,aio=native -balloon virtio -smp 6 -m 6144M

/dev/fioa3 is a 160gb slc fusion-io card

DragonFlyBSD 3.4.2-RELEASE is the guest OS


# /tmp/rr1 /dev/vbd0
Device /dev/vbd0 bufsize 512 limit 10.800GB nprocs 32
randrand 1.001s 24293 loops = 41.202uS/loop
randrand 1.002s 24384 loops = 41.072uS/loop
randrand 1.001s 24633 loops = 40.640uS/loop

# /tmp/rr1 /dev/vbd0 4096
Device /dev/vbd0 bufsize 4096 limit 10.800GB nprocs 32
randrand 1.001s 24333 loops = 41.119uS/loop
randrand 1.002s 24389 loops = 41.052uS/loop
randrand 1.001s 24367 loops = 41.093uS/loop

# /tmp/rr1 /dev/vbd0 16384
Device /dev/vbd0 bufsize 16384 limit 10.800GB nprocs 32
randrand 1.001s 21006 loops = 41.619uS/loop
randrand 1.002s 21167 loops = 41.348uS/loop
randrand 1.001s 20520 loops = 48.850uS/loop


cpu usage on the host nears 100% while /tmp/rr1 is running. at nprocs 32, the device should be capable of at least 100k iops. the same 25k limit is seen using an ssd array as well.
