I'm using ProxmoxVE and I would like to run some benchmarks regarding performances of this product. One of these benchmarks is bonnie++ ; it runs very well in a VM (qemu-kvm) but when I run it in a conainer (openVZ), it does not provide me reading speed (only writing).
I don't understand why... Does anyone know what's happenning ?
VMs ans Containers are Debian 7.4.
Here's the output of bonnie in the container:
root@ct2:/# bonnie++ -u root

The filesystem for / is of type "simfs", which is a pseudo filesystem for openVZ. Maybe it's related to this issue but I can't find anyone with the same issue with bonnie and openVZ...
Thanks for your help.
