One thing I had noticed at the time when others were reporting simliar issues was that their HW platforms were also not on the VMware HCL, so I was not sure if this was limited to only home-lab environments? In fact, I too had observed this same behavior when I had upgraded my Intel NUC (not an officially supported platform) to ESXi 6.5. Basic operations such as cloning or uploading an OVF/OVA would literally double if not triple in time. For customers who had SATA controllers that consumed the VMware Advanced Host Controller Interface (AHCI) driver found that after upgrading to ESXi 6.5, the disk performance for those devices were significantly impacted.
