Hi Wil,
Thanks for that helpful info. I will run an experiment by changing to e1000e. In the meantime would you clarify something?
You said "Performance wise this paravirtual NIC should be best though." I'm not familiar with the term "paravirtual NIC" so does this refer to the change to e1000e or to vmxnet3? If it is vmxnet3, would you point me to instructions on how to add that specific network card?
