Have a look at: http://www.vmware.com/solutions/business-critical-apps/exchange/ ...It turns out the the current performance record for a little enterprise application called Microsoft Exchange is done on VMware vSphere, which just happens to be the leading platform supporting cloud based infrastructure today. Yes - Exchange runs faster on cloud infrastructure than it does on running directly on physical hardware. I've benchmarked similar using Phoronix benchmark suite. Because of how things can get optimized, such performance increases are actually fairly common. -- ================================== By all means marry; If you get a good wife, you'll be happy.
