+# @compress: Use multiple compression threads to accelerate live migration.
+# This feature can help to reduce the migration traffic, by sending
+# compressed pages. Please note that if compress and xbzrle are both
+# on, compress only takes effect in the ram bulk stage, after that,
+# it will be disabled and only xbzrle takes effect, this can help to
+# minimize migration traffic. The feature is disabled by default.

# @auto-converge: If enabled, QEMU will automatically throttle down the guest
# to speed up convergence of RAM migration. (since 1.6)
