<div dir="ltr">now I renewed my System and tested it with
virt-viewer on a very good Laptop with ubuntu. The Performance
is nearly 100% perfect. Sometimes it is a little bit laggy,
notably when I play videos in fullscreen. When I go with the
mouse cursor over a running youtube video it also laggs.<br>
<div><br>
Also I tested it with a thin client (1GHz, 512mb RAM) , there
it is more laggy.<br>

<font face="Arial">I thought it might be nice to chime in with my
results.</font> I'm running nearly the same versions, except that
I'm still using the 0.30 version of the spice-guest-tools.<br>
<br>
I just tested my network speed at the KVM host and in my Windows 7
guest. The largest difference was in the ping time which was doubled
in the guest (10 ms versus 5 ms in the host). The network bandwidth
was almost the same, i.e. in both cases download and upload was over
70 Mbps (to my ISP). Overall, I would say this is not too bad.<br>
<br>
I usually have reasonable performance watching videos from within
the guest. The one thing where I do see issues is with Microsoft
Lync while trying to do audio or video calls with colleagues. This
works for several seconds (I've seen up to 20 or 30 seconds) and
then invariably the connection drops which Lync claims to be due to
a flaky network connection. I do not buy this at all. But somehow
Lync sees something about the KVM network connection that it doesn't
like. <br>
