Depends on the size of the VM, for example: the backup process stops after 5%. If the VM is smaller the process stops at 24%. Backup completes if i choose the local storage.

Also if i copy larger files (for example 1.6GB iso image) to CIFS, IO delays jumps to 50% and that's it. If i choose smaller iso image (less then 1GB) everything is OK.

There are no such problems with kernel: 2.6.32-24-pve.

Code:
# cat /var/log/syslog | grep "timeout"
