Performance is a central requirement to the wide-spread adoption of virtualization. To deliver on the promise of simplifying IT via virtualization, the virtualization platform must provide excellent performance with minimal effort. Virtualization performance encompasses several different dimensions. An application running in a virtual machine must perform on-par with the same application natively. Multiple virtual machines running on the same host must scale well and share resources effectively. In this paper we will describe how virtualization performance at all of these levels has progressed with advances in software and hardware. We then discuss some of the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead as we move into the era of cloud computing
