And repeated stuff like this from the guest kernel:

[  402.381203] virtio_net virtio2 eth1: NETDEV WATCHDOG: CPU: 0: transmit queue 0 timed out 5792 ms
[  402.382150] virtio_net virtio2 eth1: TX timeout on queue: 0, sq: output.0, vq: 0x1, name: output.0, 5792000 usecs ago

>> 3. Start Firefox VM with vm-start

>> 5. Quit Firefox and wait a few seconds for VM to stop
>> 6. Start Firefox VM with vm-start again
