My problem if I use "qemu" as domain type is the guest is slow enough to 
make me think it doesnt use the kvm.

In the beginning, and in Ubuntu documentation, the domain type is "qemu" 
as default.

So, the question that might solve the problems:
     How can assume it's realy using kvm (and not just qemu)?

Note: when I launch the guest via the "kvm" command [1], it's faster.

     $ kvm -m 512 -hda foo.img -cdrom bar.iso -boot d
