I have a IBM XSeries 366 with 04 processors Intel Xeon 3.16 Ghz, 16 Gb of memory and a storage IBM with 2 terabytes. I work with virtualization and my OS in this machine is a VMware ESX 2.5.3 version. When I install CentOS 4.X as guest operating system under ESX, the performance is very very bad. When I intsall RHES4 as guest operating system under ESX, the performance is very good. It will be that it has some problem CentOS to work with virtualization?
Can you provide some details on what tests you ran to determine the performance ? even if its just a few simple things, I'd like to know so we can see where the problem might be.
I'm running CentOS on vmware-server, not ESX, and have had no real issues except the time loosing-sync, which is a vmware issue more than a CentOS issue ( and there are a lot of fix's for it hanging around ).
