We had done some webserver tests using file based images instead of LVM. This was on Xen 3.0.0.
As I remember, we didn't have any significant difference between the performance on Xen with file based image and Linux with physical (normal) disk.

Hello folks,

How much is the performance penalty if you use a file instead of an LVM? Has there been any benchmarks on this?

Thanks.
