  Host for the first time: 
  $ time ls bam.unsorted/
  ...........................
  real    0m0.084s
  user    0m0.000s
  sys     0m0.028s
  --------------------------------------------------
  Host second and following: 

  real    0m0.009s
  user    0m0.000s
  sys     0m0.008s
  ------------------------------------------------------
  VM for the first time: 
  $ time ls bam.unsorted/
  ................................
  real    0m23.141s
  user    0m0.064s
  sys     0m2.156s
  ------------------------------------------------------
  VM for the second time
  real    0m3.643s
  user    0m0.024s
  sys     0m0.424s
  ----------------------------------------------------

  Copy on host: 
  $ time cp 5173T.root.bak test.tmp
  real    0m30.346s
  user    0m0.004s
  sys     0m5.324s

  $ ls -lahs test.tmp
  2.7G -rw------- 1 oneadmin cloud 2.7G Mar 26 21:47 test.tmp

  ---------------------------------------------------
  $ copy on VM for the same file

  time cp 5173T.root.bak test.tmp

  real    5m46.978s
  user    0m0.352s
  sys     1m38.962s
