I originally posted this to the Virtualization list, but later realized
that emulation might be better suited.

I'm running several FreeBSD guests inside ESXi4, and have (on the
windows VMs) noticed a major increase in disk performance with the
pvscsi "adapter".

The OpenVMTools has the kernel module driver for Linux. Are there any
plans on adding this to FreeBSD as well?
