Hi, Does anyone know the reason for, VM resizing time to increase faster if you continuously increase CPU or DISK resources by +1 (e.g. 1-2, 2-3, 3-4, 4-5). Whereas, when you increase from 1 to any other (e.g. 1-2, 1-2, 1,3, 1-4, 1-5) it takes less time in comparison. Can anyone give an explanation for this? I have plotted two graphs.

The error bars show the standard error of the gathered values at each step, as I did resize multiple times to get a mean value. I use openstack on x86 with KVM, although I have asked the openstack community I could not yet find an answer to this. Thanks!
