1) I think I agree with the bits about needing to share this code with
postcopy; lets see how it goes.
2) I do have a bug I can reproduce in the postcopy test where it fails
under heavy load (e.g. ~10 TCG'd guests on one CPU) - not investigated
in detail yet, but watch out.

why is 1GB/s enough for it to converge? I'd add another 0 and
make the downtime larger as well.

We've started using g_dir_make_tmp recently; it's certianly simpler.
