for an esxi all in one with napp it .. would setting the VMs latency sensitivity to high improve napp its performance by giving it priority for shared resouces like the vmnic and disk controller interrupts ?

also I see that napp-it turns on xattr=on but not xattr=sa which at least in osx was considered necessary for good performance...

does xattr=sa present any compatibiity issues for esxi vm pools or compatibility for moving pools from say napp-it to other openzfs platforms?

thanks

I would imagine the latencies introduced from disks would out weigh the VM latency you are talking about - although it should be fairly easy to bench if you want to know for sure. My Napp-it AIO pools are performing great and reliably without tweaking.
