I assume you installed successfully QXL drivers in any guest. However some more details are needed. - which type of guests are you using? - with which application type you have poor performances? - do you measure performance or just expect more responsiveness? - does screen refresh slowly? - what's the network configuration? - what's latency? (like ping response) - what's the bandwidth? (which kind of connection) Frediano <hr id="zwchr"><blockquote style="border-left:2px solid #1010FF;margin-left:5px;padding-left:5px;color:#000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-decoration:none;font-family:Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;">From: "Thomas Foster" <thomas.foster80@gmail.com> To: spice-devel@lists.freedesktop.org Sent: Monday, May 11, 2015 11:41:17 AM Subject: [Spice-devel] Poor video performance Hello, I am new to using the spice client, and I wanted to know if there is something I can do about video performance. I am currently using the downloaded version of the Windows and CentOS client (the latest version on spice website)...should I compile the spice client? My problem comes in when I simulate user experience with youtube, or any application that redraws. Performance for Desktop applications (libre, vim, surfing the web..except website with lots of advertising). I looked at the FAQ about poor performance and didn't know how to check for the options: <a href="http://www.spice-space.org/page/FAQ" target="_blank">http://www.spice-space.org/page/FAQ</a> Any help would be appreciated. Also, I am using ovirt 3.5. _______________________________________________ Spice-devel mailing list Spice-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/spice-devel </blockquote> </div></body></html>
