After some bad disk perfo with the ML350 I choose not to use proxmox and/or linux-kvm , this week I deployed a new ML330 G6 and because I'm still not sure that the disk performance should be that bad I retry a complete install with proxmox and vmware essentials 4 on a new server Config ...

So its the way it is ? I tried different VM settings with various RAM/CPU's/CORE's and 30 to 40 MB/s is the maximum I could get from VM Machine , everywhere I read than KVM is WAY better than vmware for speed , someone here really reached 80% of native performance with KVM or its another dream

Maybe different kernel ? some suggestions ?
