10Gb template with SSVM on E1000: 03:21.18 (10GB) 10Gb template with SSVM on VMXNET3: 03:17.18 (10GB) 60Gb template with SSVM on E1000: 18:32.16 (60GB) 60Gb template with SSVM on VMXNET3: 18:12.98 (60GB) Any other thoughts on how to speed stuff up? Where would the bottleneck lie; storage for NFS mount?
