Josh, For the first time provisioning, it is necessary to copy full of the original image from the storage node to the computing node. But the qcow2 clones for the later provisioning within the computing node. But this is for the OpenStack Essex not for the Folsom. I haven't test the OpenStack module for the Folsom yet.

The thinking was that currently, OpenStack always does a full copy of the vmdk files for a deploy, which can take a while. Using linked clones makes it work much faster since a full copy is no longer needed. I think Young planned on picking it back up as soon as linked clones are supported. Young - Am I remembering correctly?
