[Libguestfs] [PATCH 0/2] Improve the performance of virt-df

Currently virt-df launches the appliance once for each guest.  With
these two patches the number of times the appliance launches is
reduced to once every 26 block devices.

In theory we could do better by adding support for disk hot-add
(supported by qemu but not via libguestfs at the moment).  However
this patch is still an improvement on the current situation.

virt-p2v converts physical machines to virtual machines.  Boot with a
live CD or over the network (PXE) and turn machines into Xen guests.
