Indeed, that was a good suggestion - they were not using KVM (support 
not compiled in, and kvm didn't complain when starting).

IO and CPU speed was rather OK, so I didn't notice ;)

To sum up the thread: I guess qemu _without_ KVM will only use one CPU, 
even when you assign more CPUs to the guest?
