Why VM snapshots are affecting performance?
- by Samselvaprabu
I read in one of the VMware KB article says that snapshots will directly proportional to VM performance.
But my team keep asking me how snapshots can affect performance.
I would like to give them solid reason behind the statement that snapshots are performance killers.
Can any one explain a little bit theory behind why actually snapshots are affecting the performance? Is it just because Disk I/O rate of hard disk would be slow?
