When should you NOT put your Virtual Swap File with the VM? I'm thinking maybe when the guest is residing on slower storage? Put the Swap file on faster storage? Reason I ask is I've been playing with different ways to set up shared storage on the cheap in my home lab. Tried starwinds software iscsi client and the free version works very well. Discovered that my Buffalo Terastation Pro has NFS capability but it's so slow compared to running starwinds on a box with fast storage. I would rather use the Terastation so I didn't have to spin up an entire physical server. So my thinking would be to put the guest swap file on the local storage on the VM Host, obviously not concerned about vmotion at this point.
