    VMware introduced the ability to have VMDKs in a thin-provisioning format as part of their vSphere 4 product.  Surgient fully supports the ability to utilize thinly-provisioned disks directly out of the Library.  For existing Libraries you can take advantage of converting so-called "thick" VMDKs into a thinly-provisioned format thereby putting them on a proverbial diet.
