It's unfortunately because of the last point that if libvirt fails to
start the qemu appliance, we print an error message telling you to try
with LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND=direct.
That was one of the motivations. You were hit by it too apparently (
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1271183 ).
I removed the connect line and set the environment variable and all looks
good. I indeed don't see any much different performance difference.
Thanks!
