Description of problem: I tried to transfer a large video (450MB) from the client (Win7) to the guest (RHEL6.5), and the guest was unusable for around a minute while the file was being transferred, trying to type in a terminal in the guest, pixels refreshing can be seen very clearly as it updates the whole terminal window, which takes seconds.

Just tried this with a 3GB file, and the VM was responsive. Transfer took 10+ minutes but was successful (md5sum matches). This was over a LAN. Could it be that the file transfer saturated the link between client and host? Are you still seeing this issue?
