Throughput Testing – VM’s between Hypervisors
My testing of Virtual Machine to Virtual Machine throughput demonstrated that with minimal tuning, considerable throughput can be obtained between virtual machines running on the same Hypervisor.
Clearly, the next step was to test throughput between Hypervisors… I had planned on running some initial tests, then based on the results, going “all out” and configuring SR-IOV as needed to obtain as close to wire speed as possible, but initial testing generated some great results…
