live migration's performance with compression enabled is much worse than compression disabled
Description of problem:
Steps to reproduce:
1. Run QEMU the Guests with 1Gpbs network on source host and destination host with QEMU command line
2. Run some memory work loads on Guest, for example, ./memtester 1G 1
3. Set migration parameters in QEMU monitor. On source and destination,
execute: #migrate_set_capability compress on
Other compression parameters are all default.
4. Run migrate command, # migrate -d tcp:10.156.208.154:4000
5. The results:
- without compression： total time: 197366 ms throughput: 937.81 mbps transferred Ram: 22593703 kbytes
- with compression: total time: 281711 ms throughput: 90.24 mbps transferred Ram: 3102898 kbytes
When compression is enabled, the compression transferred ram is reduced a lot. But the throughput is down badly.
The total time of live migration with compression is longer than without compression.
I tried with 100G network bandwidth, it also has the same problem.
