[OmniOS-discuss] KVM disk performance r151012

[Jorge Schrauwen]

vioblk got included in the latest release.

However for some reason both caiman (installer) and kayak (network 
installer)
do recognized virtio disk. The driver is correctly loaded. (SmartOS does 
not
suffer form this, the driver code is the same)

Some debugging still needs to happen, I give it a shot but failed to 
find what
was broken. There is no virtio-net driver however.

If all goes well bloody will have open-vm-tools soon so at least under 
vmware
thing should work smoother soon.

Regards

Jorge
