I have anecdotal information from a colleague about performance issues running Ubuntu Server in a Hyper-V environment and I wanted to find out if there was any truth to it. Has anyone had any experience running Ubuntu Server in Hyper-V and are there any tricks to getting good hard drive performance?

You might do better and not have to shell out a bunch of cash to use Ubuntu and qemu-kvm or virtualbox as the host instead of Microsoft's proprietary OS and VM.

Yes, but we are going to have an MS stack anyway, and I was wanting consolidation. We are an MS partner, and Hyper-V is 'free' (I know, don't laugh!) when you buy the OS. Apr 27, 2011 at 16:38
