First of all you need to check your nvme performace (dd can help? dd if=/dev/zero of=/test bs=1M count=10000 andd see results. If you want results more benchmark oriented you could try bonnie++ as suggested by Jerry). Other this, have you got kvm module loaded and enabled cpu virtualization option in the BIOS? If yes, have you got created the VM using --accelerate? Have you tried another distro on VM? Actually I can't install C8 on my nmve drive. It powers this workstation and is still 7.7, at the moment I don't install C8 because it is unusable. Hope that helps.
