Who advised you to virtualize your most performance wise critical 
system? I mean... there are now two groups that want to do this and only 
to get high availability, or some big commercial bennefit. You didn't 
talked about this at all.
So we can conclude you design was stupid. Is stupid and by running your 
database on a dedicated server you could have reduced cost, increased 
stability and performance. I'm glad you finally saw the light!

But thank you for trying 1 vcpu with your superb setup, it was great 
entertainment.
