Uhm, but the dd command wasn't :-) (the guest's root disk is sd2, not sd0...) Now our numbers align much better: # dd if=/dev/rsd2c of=/dev/null bs=10m count=50 50+0 records in 50+0 records out 524288000 bytes transferred in 131.796 secs (3978008 bytes/sec) For reference, the guest's raw disk read speed was: # dd if=/dev/rsd0c of=/dev/null bs=10m count=50 50+0 records in 50+0 records out 524288000 bytes transferred in 11.481 secs (45663843 bytes/sec) # dd if=/dev/rsd0c of=/dev/null bs=10m count=500 500+0 records in 500+0 records out 5242880000 bytes transferred in 128.997 secs (40643390 bytes/sec)
