This might be, but, how do I tell? If the VM was overloaded, surely it
would present itself in the OS in some form or other?
Namely the I/O is probably killing you (with whatever writes it may
be
achieving); Either run critical write portions in a RAM disk,
optimize
The box only runs src servers, the IO is an average of 10-15kb/second,
except when loading levels, which ofcourse "spikes" at 50-80mb.
(Reported by dstat io)
This can hardly be described as overloaded?
Also, the VM boxes are hosted on separate, physical harddrives, and
looking at overall ESXi IO, we're talking average disk IO across the
entire machine in the sub-mb-second range.
