Hi all,
After upgrade from discontinued PVE 4.4 to 5.2 I faced quite an unpleasant fact, that all my OpenBSD guests have been slowed down dramatically... After some research I found, that Spectre-related patches can affect performance (does that mean, that last pve-kernel for 4.4 didn't have them?). Funny, but Linux guests haven't been affected at all. I played a bit with different types of processor/flags (PCID, SPEC-CTRL), and disk caches, but did not come to any significant improvement... Any suggestions/ideas?
Cheers,
Kirill
