Hi Neel, Thank you very much for your response - That's great! I guess this should deliver the full capacity for basically any IO system around, be it a fast SSD or ramdisk. (Since the guest may not need to flush data immediately to the host, I guess read performance is the more sensitive po

Is the BHyVe guest as suitable for high-performance disk IO as the host?

Hi! For an environment with very heavy parallell IO, should the performance be just as good in a BHyVe guest as in the FreeBSD host environment? What I thought of is that I guess within the host environment, the storage subsystem should have all kinds of optimizations like an internal work q
