Not sure about that - never ran Oracle on vmware before, but I wouldn't
think it should require anything special. It sounds like the I/O to
your SAN is just slower than the I/O to the internal disks, but you
should run a 10046 trace (with waits) on both environments to confirm if
that's really where the bottleneck is. Verify that both queries are
using exactly the same explain plan first and then check the wait times
for the db file scattered reads and also your average read times in
v$filestat and/or statspack/AWR.
You could also just bypass the database and check the I/O speed at the
OS levels, e.g. by seeing how long it takes to copy a 500MB file or
something like that.
