The last time I tried KVM on my laptop the performance was a lot slower than native performance as opposed to Xen which was near enough to native hardware performance that the difference didn't matter.
Note that (last time I looked), qemu/kvm do not use virtio by default. -drive file=foo.squashfs,index=0,media=disk,if=virtio -net nic,model=virtio -net user There's doubtless a bunch of other ricing you can do.
