Ok, running the guest with clock=acpi_pm added to the Linux command line, whilst the host is running the 2.6.32-32 kernel has given me stable behaviour for 20 minutes with constant CPU usage, so it very much looks like this is a duplicate of bug 790789. -- You received this bug notification becau

Did the 2.6.32-33 kernel provided by Serge solve the issue? I see this report is for an AMD machine; it might possibly be related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qemu-kvm/+bug/799166 although in that case there was no "kvm-clocksource has been installed" message in the logs prior to a
