The ESXi tweaking I recall doing was disabling power management to
ensure high performance against the hardware.

The other bit was building a vSwitch for each port, as the default for
ESXi is to put all of the server's ports in the same vSwitch. But this
is less of a performance tweak than just good security.

It would be nice to hear what else Pshem did to his VM.
