Abstract
Improved virtualized application performance is provided through disabling of unnecessary functions, such as unnecessary encryption and decryption operations. An example method performed by a hypervisor includes the steps of obtaining a request from a first virtual machine to perform one or more of encrypting and decrypting of a communication between the first virtual machine and a second virtual machine; determining when the first and second virtual machines execute on a same host as the hypervisor; and in response to the first and second virtual machines executing on the same host: processing the communication without performing the one or more of encrypting and decrypting of the communication, wherein the hypervisor initiates an encryption of further communications between the first virtual machine and the second virtual machine in response to at least one of the first virtual machine and the second virtual machine being moved from the same host.
