bandwith and latency are not mine to decide about
QXL-driver check
spice-agent check
tweaks in guest definition :
    <graphics type='spice' port='5999' autoport='no' listen='0.0.0.0'>
      <listen type='address' address='0.0.0.0'/>
      <image compression='glz'/>
      <jpeg compression='always'/>
      <zlib compression='always'/>
      <streaming mode='all'/>
</graphics>

I tried them on auto_glz,auto,auto,filter (tried every combo)
But I guess my bandwith is not stable and since setting them like this
gives the best performance.

<gl enable='yes'/> gets an error if I add that to the config.
It says this option is included since 1.3.3 and centos has qemu-kvm 1.5.3
Did I forget something to enable this ?
