Copying data guest -> host (both linux)

Greetings --I started a little project that went very well involving pulling down 3Gb of data onto a guest and now I'd like to copy that over to a filesystem on
the host. On a regular basis I'll be syncing up the new stuff guest -> host.

My trouble is that copying over NFS has been super slow. There seems to be some IO congestion and I'm unsure how to remedy it (both systems are linux).

I'm wondering if there's a means to just directly mount the guest's filesystem from the host? I'm looking for some sort of backdoor that'll offer speedier file transfer.


Thank you,
-zeek
