To make this faster, first try allocating extents of order 9 (2 MiB) before falling back to the order 0 allocating if the order 9 allocation fails. On my test machine this reduced the time to start a 128 GiB PV guest by about 60 seconds.From 61s or from 600s? It reduced the total time _by_ 60 seconds. I think it takes about 10 seconds to start the guest now, but it is not related to the size of guest memory.
