I've tried the kernel-lt with same results. For kernel-ml, the baremetal wasn't able to boot at that time.

Laurentiu,
Just to chip in, without thoroughly checking the thread (which I'd like to apologize in advance for): have you tried to test other kernel instead of the stock one? You can have a look at http://elrepo.org/tiki/kernel-ml and http://elrepo.org/tiki/kernel-lt and use them for some comparison testing. Cheers,
Adi Pircalabu

I've tried with KSM disabled and nothing changed.
I've upgraded KVM to qemu-kvm-ev. I'm waiting to see if there are any improvements and report back.

For myself KSM is unpredictable feature. The problem is Compute, just this node
does "copy on write" , so only Compute.
My concern exactly is where would it lead to worse or better Guest behavior ?
I am not expecting complete fix. I would track via top/htop and dmesg via Cron on 1-2 hr
period.

Both baremetal and compute ? Are there any other metrics do you consider useful to collect for troubleshooting purposes ?

It sounds weird, but attempt to disable KSM and see would it help or no ?

Enabled the logging on both compute and baremetal. Nothing strange in logs:
on baremetal :
Wed Aug 17 11:51:01 EEST 2016: committed 62310764 free 58501808 Wed Aug 17 11:51:01 EEST 2016: 87025667 < 123574516 and free > 24714903, stop ksm
on compute:

and the compute node is again at 100% CPU utilization.

Yes. It is on both baremetal and compute node.
