colima clone unbelievable slow

[salzig]

Description

colima clone default k8s is unbelievable slow. I'm running it after creating it via colima start --memory 4 --vm-type vz --vz-rosetta --kubernetes --runtime containerd running it for a while and finally stopping it colima stop.

It's copying for ~40min, and so far it has copied 18gb out of 42gb.

Output of colima status

FATA[0000] colima is not running

Reproduction Steps

1. colima start --memory 4 --vm-type vz --vz-rosetta --kubernetes --runtime containerd
2. some usage
3. colima stop
4. colima clone default k8s

Expected behaviour

I expected it to be as fast as copying a 42gb file, not just 60 Mb/s.

Additional context

M2 Pro (32GB RAM, 512GB Storage, of which 200GB are free).

Edit: I just copied the folder using rsync --progress and saw average speeds of 300mb/s. Implementation uses cp, not sure if that is the root cause.
