Hi,

I made some benchmarks with dbench on linux/KVM.

IDE means I use an image disk with "-hda"
SCSI means I use an image disk with "-sda"
(see the patch I proposed on qemu list:
http://www.mail-archive.com/qemu-devel-qX2TKyscuCcdnm+yROfE0A@public.gmane.org/msg08679.html )

threads KVM-21  KVM-21  KVM-24  KVM-24  KVM-25  KVM-25
        IDE     SCSI    IDE     SCSI    IDE     SCSI

1       215.272 94.8775 318.626 319.533 307.111 331.757
2       212.061 91.3193 313.217 315.163 314.577 323.715

32      43.4109 15.7386 48.2109 50.4114 59.1074 69.5717
64      21.0567 8.3535  11.3457 19.9483 20.4877 24.5627

	results are in MB/sec

Conclusion:

KVM-25 is really better than KVM-21
in most cases, SCSI is better than IDE

Cheers,
Laurent
