Simon, I have tested it on real hardware, and was amazed at the performance 
slump.

After that, I've reproduced it with VMWare Workstation and had exactly the same 
performance drop. (without installing vmware tools)

If you think that it is to blame VMWare, take a look at here:

Phoronix has a comparable performance loss. (between 2.6.18 and 2.6.32)

Conclusion: I will repeat this test on real hardware, when RHEL6 becomes 
available.

Best regards,

Morten
