Anyone turned on VMI in the VMware image and tested performance difference under VMWare Server 2.0?
Doesn't appear that VMI is enabled in the kernel included with the VMWare image. This should improve (often significantly) the performance of the virtual machine as it makes the kernel hypervisor aware. Is this because of known problems or just not tested?
Ubuntu ships with VMI turned on by default - as Untangle is known to run successfully on Ubuntu, I wouldn't expect this would cause a problem. ?
Whether a given virtual machine actually USES the VMI extensions is handled in the configuration of the virtual machine...
Thanks!
