[CentOS] SQL Server 2005 and CentOS?

[Alan McKay]

How heavy of a workload is the DB managing?

Everything I've read says you have to be very careful if virtualizing
your DB.  At very least give the virtual machine a real disk
partition.

Of course, I've only read about it - never done it myself :-)   But am
about to do some benchmarking soon to satisfy my curiosity.
