Haven't done any recent time trials lately.
We still have some spinning disks. However we reserve the 10k spinners

Good thing you're testing this now. All the more reason not to have your
production lpar be your hosting lpar on the box. Avoid the time crunch.
I tend to use smaller storage spaces. Much like the "arms" debate it may
help to keep your storage spaces roughly the size of drives commonly used
in production on IBM i. I almost always shoot for at least six storage
spaces per lpar. But I don't deal with tiny cloud hosting lpars. If I
will need more than 10 storage spaces I will start to spread those across
multiple NWSD's per lpar.
At this time my storage spaces are either 140GB or 280GB.
Multiple storage spaces and multiple NWSD's will have a positive impact on
your guests.
When I first started I used to create one huge drive per lpar. I've since
rebuilt that from the ground up.
