[Qemu-devel] [Bug 601946] Re: [Feature request] qemu-img multi-threaded

That was also my feeling, so nice to get a confirmation!

Another related thing would be to allow qemu-nbd to write compressed
blocks its backing image - today if you use a qcow2 with compression,
any block which is written to gets uncompressed in the resulting image
and you need to recompress the image offline with qemu-img.

Would you have any pointers/documentation on how best to implement this
so both qemu-img and qemu-nbd can use multithreaded compressed writes ?
I'm totally new to qemu block subsystem.

Title:
  [Feature request] qemu-img multi-threaded compressed image conversion

Status in QEMU:
  New

Bug description:
  Feature request:
  qemu-img multi-threaded compressed image conversion

  Suppose I want to convert raw image to compressed qcow2. Multi-
  threaded conversion will be much faster, because bottleneck is
  compressing data.
