[CentOS-virt] tuned-adm fixed Windows VM disk write performance on CentOS 6

2012-08-12 Thread Julian price
On a 32bit Windows 2008 Server guest VM on a CentOS 5 host, iometer reported a disk write speed of 37MB/s The same VM on a CentOS 6 host reported 0.3MB/s. i.e. The VM was unusable. Write performance in a CentOS 6 VM was also much worse, but it was usable. (See http://lists.centos.org/pipermail
