[powerdev-hosting] Low download speeds on OSU CI VMs

[Smita Bodepudi]

Lance,

Throughout the build there are calls like git clone http://github.com, git
checkout, update installed packages, downloading docker images, download
tools like mvn etc.


Regards,
Smita.

​What exactly are you​ are you trying to download from? Do you have any
URL's?

Is anyone else having problems with downloads? We've had a few reports but
we hadn't have time to figure out what's causing it. The hypervisor seems
to show good speeds while the guests are slow. That makes me wonder if the
virtio-net layer isn't working on those VMs.

Thanks-
