Oh, yes. You could try running your app and looking at the iowait numbers. Oh wait, that's just what you've done
You are getting high iowait numbers and the question is why the change from 'real' to 'virtual' has done this? If I were to take a couple of guesses, what about name resolution and access to the disk subsystem. So, what I think you ought to be looking at, in the first instance, is whether name look ups or the disk subsystem have suddenly become slow.
In particular if one of those used to be local and is now virtual (on the same phys machine, but having to go through the virtualisation layer) or distant (on different hardware), that could make sense.
