Nano Server Boot Performance
One of Microsoft’s Premier Field Engineers (Jaromir Kaspar) set up a virtual lab to measure Nano Server’s boot performance and IO footprint, and compare those to Server Core and full Server. Check out Jaromir’s blog post for the full review. Here’s the summary table to whet your appetite :) :
Server | Boot Time (s) | Boot Degradation | Read (MB) | Read Degradation | Write (MB) | Write Degradation | Total (MB) | Total IO Degradation |
2016 Nano Server | 9 | 1.0 | 156 | 1.0 | 135 | 1.0 | 290 | 1.0 |
2016 Server Core | 85 | 9.4 | 2,304 | 14.8 | 1,170 | 8.7 | 3,474 | 12.0 |
2016 Full Server | 135 | 15.0 | 2,533 | 16.3 | 2,089 | 15.5 | 4,622 | 15.9 |
2012 Server Core | 82 | 9.1 | 1,618 | 10.4 | 1,426 | 10.6 | 3,044 | 10.5 |
2012 Full Server * | 84 | 9.3 | 1,694 | 10.9 | 1,453 | 10.8 | 3,147 | 10.8 |
* Full Server 2012 doesn’t have the desktop experience enabled
