Scenario:
A database server living in a virtual machine. (KVM-RHEV)
The virtual machine cannot be migrated live to another host due to
intensive memory writing as depicted here
http://pastebin.com/djj8q98j

Problem:
The database cannot be live-migrated

Is there anything I can do to slow down memory writing at the database
level in order to accomplish live migration?

Thank you for any ideas on this.
