 Hi,

 I've been running kvm21 for a long time (just upgraded to kvm-33 with 
 2.6.22.1)

 I have a 60GB qcow2 image, I noticed the image was growing without me 
 installing software on the guest os...(WIN XP)

 When I select all my files and take properties (in win xp that is), it says 
 3.7GB, as expected...

 The image is allmost the double though (6.4GB) when i look at the qcow2 
 image, 
 when taking the properties of the HD in win xp it also indictates 6.4GB.

 I've been installing some software, after each install I did a restart, 
 bakupped the image etc...

 Any idea's ?

   

If Windows says the disk size is 6.4GB, then the qcow image certainly 
can't be smaller.

Maybe you have a large paging file, or perhaps you need to run chkdsk.

Hum, then the used disk space is 6.4GB. Selecting all files may skip
hidden/system/whatever files according to explorer settings.
