Public bug reported:

Detail description and steps:
1. Configure vmdk as the volume_driver in cinder.conf, restart cinder 
corresponding service. Just like below:
volume_driver=cinder.volume.drivers.vmware.vmdk.VMwareVcVmdkDriver
2. Create a volume with command with "cinder create..."

Current problem:
If there are many hosts in the environment, for example 200 hosts, and the top 
hosts of the hosts list don't meet the requirement, it will lead openstack to 
interactive many times with vcenter(api calls), and it will cause the 
performance of volume creation very bad. The time cost mainly focuses on 
datastore selection phase.


Expected result:
Even though there are many hosts in the environment, the duration for volume 
creation(datastore selection) with vmdk driver is within acceptable range.
