error: Failed to create domain from vm.xml
error: internal error process exited while connecting to monitor: kvm: -drive file=/home/dum8d0g/vms/deb.qcow2,if=none,id=drive-ide0-0-0,boot=on,format=qcow2,cache=none: could not open disk image /home/dum8d0g/vms/deb.qcow2: Invalid argument
When that option is removed, domain is created successfuly. I guess I have another bugreport to fill.
So, for me, the issue is somehow solved from the qemu side. I think, this could be marked as wontfix.
I confirm that without 'cache' option, I have got from iostat those result while doing 'savevm'

I also confirm, that when option 'cache=unsafe' is used, snapshot (from qemu monitor) is done as quickly as it should (few seconds).
I am not sure if this is a solution or workaround or just a closer description of a bug.
http:// libvirt. org/formatdomai n.html# elementsDisks describes option 'cache'. When I use that (cache="none") it spits out:
