Which filesystem to use in a VM for best performance?
by Projectile from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6CGPJ)
I was wondering if choosing ext2 in a VM would improve performance, over say ext4.
Seems to me like wasted effort for the Guest to use a journaling filesystem when the Host already does that.
Also, are there any ext2/ext4 benchmark utilities that I can run in Bash to get the actual throughput numbers?
