Hi guys,

    While doing some auditing on disk usage, we've noticed that the back
device for ephemeral disks is done by a slow mkfs.ntfs (when the
ephemeral disk is ntfs), is there any reasons why it's not done using
qcow2?

Also, could we add a quick format option  ?  Not everbody requires the
same level of filesystem security and sometimes, performances prevail on
security (for internal clouds for instance).

Dave
