Software Recommendations and Licensing Notes
It’s highly recommended that you use the latest virtualization host software from your particular vendor. For example, the latest version of Hyper-V is included with Windows Server 2008 R2. Hyper-V 2.0 has significant performance improvements over Hyper-V 1.0, such as I/O improvements for fixed-size VHDs. Hyper-V 2.0 also has new features such as Core Parking, Live Migration, TCP Offload, the Jumbo Frames feature, and support for Second-Level Address Translation (SLAT)-enabled processors. If you’re virtualizing SharePoint on Hyper-V, also consider deploying the virtual host on Server Core to minimize its security footprint, OS disk overhead (2GB versus 10GB), and memory use.
