Is this faster nowadays if you use the new -blockdev parameter instead
of -drive?

Title:
  qemu is very slow when adding 16,384 virtio-scsi drives

Status in QEMU:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  qemu runs very slowly when adding many virtio-scsi drives.  I have
  attached a small reproducer shell script which demonstrates this.

  Using perf shows the following stack trace taking all the time:
