What Are You Doing Right Now
-
Gorgeous day here. I think that the family wants to take a drive today, but the youngest is still asleep.
-
Lunch is cooking, putting on a show to watch. Hulu stopped working right as we went to watch something, that sucks.
-
Oh, no Hulu is fine, just another Fire TV problem. That thing is such junk.

Good morning ML

Good Morning ML! Getting my puppet on this morning so I can finish up some scripting work I've been working on the past few days. It's been so long, I almost forgot how to script
And doing it in Ruby doesn't help! -
Goodnight ML..
-
Gorgeous day here. Hoping to head out and sightsee shortly. Fingers crossed.
-
Just did my daily millipede wrangling.
-
Did some driving around the island today. My daughter got sick in the car from motion sickness today.
-
My Remix Mini is working pretty well so far.

XO found that PVHVM is performing better for them than plain PV (at least for web servers in their tests)
-
I just right now watched a movie called my name.

Xen has been claiming this for a little while, at least for certain workloads, but they have said it is because they have new hardware acceleration support that is only implemented on the HVM platform. They are working on getting the same acceleration into the PV product as well which should bring the PV side back in front of HVM again. It's not that the PV isn't always faster than FV, it is that they've done things on one and not the other.

Watching Hot in Cleveland on Hulu. One of my favourite sitcoms.

Ah ok. Ya I saw on their site they said they thought PVH was the "sweet spot" but I didn't see the other explanation.

Just did a live disk migration with XO from an NFS server to local storage. Worked perfectly.

The entire concept of HVM is poor if you have PV available. But as only very limited workloads support full PV, there is a lot of focus on features for HVM. But what they do on HVM can be replicated by KVM, ESXi and Hyper-V, but what they do with PV cannot.

Went for a walk and didn't have to shoot the dog down the road so I guess it was successful.
