                        <div>Hi Bruce,<br>
                          <br>
                          pveperf is quite bad. From my limited
                          experience, a tipical 7200 rpms SATA drive
                          gives 60 fsync/s and >100 MB/sec buffered
                          reads. Average seek time is very bad too
                          (~13ms in 7200 rpm drive). If you had VMs
                          running, please stop them all and rerun the
                          command.<br>
                          <br>
                          You shouldn't used this for virtualization
                          unless this problem is fixed (you're already
                          feeling the pain eh??)<br>
                          <br>
                          What hard disk controller do you have?
                          ('lspci')

                                <div>Thanks for the feedback. It seems
                                  that the whole Windows system is slow.
                                  It happens with loading applications
                                  too and loading start menu for example
                                  so if I am understanding this right,
                                  viritio drives which are installed
                                  after Windows is installed may not
                                  help me a lot?! Please correct me if I
                                  am wrong. Also how can I build a
