I'm using plain ole mv. The virtual machine is 512M and the data is a single file that is 650M. The source nad destination are on seperate volumes. What I'm seeing in iostat is nothing being written or read "0 rkB/S 0wkB/s" for quite some time big await's then I see a flurry of activity and await goes down but starts getting larger and larger because nothing is being written. Then the cycle starts again.
