      The v2v conversion seems limited to a single CPU.

        Is this a lab you've converted from Hyper-V to KVM or production (client and or business workloads, aka not production for your house).

            This is my personal server I use to run various stuff as well as to run lab things.

            It was Hyper-V 2012R2 upgraded to Hyper-V 2016.

            Now it is KVM on Fedora 30.

              I've had issues with that converting things. virt-v2v has worked better for me.

                Everything converted, except the JitsiMeet instance. I did all of it via virt-manager and ssh by way of ZeroTier (the 10.224.0.0/24 network is ZT).

                  pages on daerma.com load slow. No idea why, it is a basic WP site.

                  obelisk.daerma.com loads at what seems a normal pace.

                  naggaroth.daerma.com doesn't seem to have any issues either.

                      Umm whatever virt-manager uses by default.

                            Removed an old IP from the router, and it all works faster. That makes no sense. But it was something that needed cleaned up.
