Hello Stefan,Paolo and Richard, Many thanks for your detailed comments! Really thanks for your great help! We are talking about light VM solution with our customers firstly and want to know their concerns. Then we will continue to talk this on this thread. Richard, your paper and test script will do great help for our further work. I also CC PengChao and Anthony in this thread, they will join this talk. Regards, Yang
