Greetings,

I’ve got a few questions about the joyent public cloud regarding windows KVM 
ZVOLS:


·         Does joyent set “sync=disabled” on windows zvol’s?

·         Does joyent use “dedup=on” on cloud nodes?

·         Is there a list of “best practices” options to set on windows VM’s to 
get the most performance? Taking into account that the ZVOL will have ntfs on 
top of it?

·         Is there a performance hit using thin-provisioned ZVOL’s?

·         Is LZ4 compression okay on a ZVOL dataset? Is there a performance 
impact to the VM’s or the GZ?

·         Are there any performance options that ive missed here such as record 
size that could impact performance positively (or negatively)?


I’m trying to make our windows VM’s perform as fast and smoothly as possible 
and would like to turn this into a wiki article for Windows VM provisioning.
