Explanation

Explanation/Reference: https://support.citrix.com/article/CTX224040 The delta structure was first chosen for a number of reasons, however the main reasons were Small storage footprint Fast VM create and reset times as the delta disks takes very little time to create. This is because of the use of delta disks do come with a downside Some backup solutions don't backup VMs that contain a delta structure. Storage migration while not impossible is more complicated VM migration does not work on all hypervisors Block alignment issues on some hypervisors when using delta disks. As the storage is unaware of the VM structure, it is unable to apply any optimisations to the way that it stores the data. As the deltas grow over time, this can lead to disk fragmentation on the storage, leading to increased load
