migrate_speed setting

[linuxdatacenter]

Hi,

I've got this in my /etc/pve/qemu-server.cfg and also in /etc/qemu-server/<id>.conf
keyboard: en-us
migrate_speed: 50
migrate_downtime: 0

However migrate_speed setting is not respected (you can see transfer rate is 2 times bigger 1- 20MB/s):

Oct 21 14:52:12 migration status: active (transferred 4415188KB, remaining 22308KB), total 4211072KB)
Oct 21 14:52:14 migration status: completed
Oct 21 14:52:14 migration speed: 120.47 MB/s
Oct 21 14:52:16 migration finished successfuly (duration 00:00:39)

Does migrate_speed really work in kvm?

That limit should work - yes. But you can actually get faster speeds because of compression.
