There is a VMware setting which you can set which should give you a small but noticeable performance improvement in SQL Server performance when that SQL Server is running within a VMware Virtual Machine.
This setting is the Large Pages setting. This will allow the SQL Server to allocate memory from the host in 2 Meg chunks instead of 4k chunks. This has been shown to provide up to a 6% performance improvement in performance, however your mileage may very.
This setting can be found by editing the Hosts Advanced Settings on the Configuration tab. The setting is Mem.AllocGuestLargePage.

Sorry, but can you repost this in English? BabbelFish can’t translate most of it.
