yes, it's eating 100% of one CPU core.

kvm_stat for few seconds (hunged guest is the only one running on the host):

I'll wait a bit with bisect whether You'll spot some obvious bug or not ;)
thanks for Your time!

PS: I still owe You the kvm_stat comparison about this slow windows chkdsk problem,
I'm aware of it, I just had to postpone this due to more urgent matters :(
but I'll get back to it sooner or later..
