ListFindByID() still requires to step through items in the hash table (in the worst case scenario through all of them), lock each one and compare whether we've found what we're looking for. This is suboptimal as locking a domain object means we need to wait for the current API running over the object to finish. Unfortunately, we can't drop the function completely because we have this public API virDomainLookupByID which we can't drop. Signed-off-by: Michal Privoznik <mprivozn@redhat.com>

LibVirt : simple API for virtualization Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed. Daniel Veillard <veillard@redhat.com>
Description

virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
