Tested on a fresh proxmox-ve_8.4-ALPHA-1.iso install.

Configured a directory mapping and passed it to a Debian VM with the
default settings. Inside the VM I mounted the directory using
`mount -t virtiofs dirid /mnt/path`.

Writing some data to the directory from inside the VM with
`dd if=/dev/urandom of=/mnt/path/bench bs=1M` was decently fast:
190 MB/s
