The other day I received an interesting email from a partner of a mainstream server virtualization vendor. Good marketing for.... Parallels Virtuozzo. Performance problems in VMWare are such that a 3rd party ISV develops a specialized software package to tackle them. This is not from competition; this is from a VMWare partner. So this should be a genuine acknowledgement of performance issues in VI.

Thoughts coming to our mind are "Why spend the money VI costs and then also invest in performance analyzer and tuner when you can virtualize and create really fast performing virtual servers without all the hassle and expense?"
