I agree, I find it slow as well.

Hi,
i have been experimenting with deflate compression paramters in the past and
found that the values chosen
in QCOW2 are not that optimal. In fact creation of compressed QCOW2 is very
slow. And especially for backups
compression would be good, but its so slow thats almost infeasible to use.
