I've built servers that are used exactly in the described way.
Fragmentation on iSCSI-exported sparse files is, as expected, absolutely
horrific. However in virtual web servers environments the expected
throughput is low enough to be of little importance in that particular
case. If the OP expects higher performance, he will be on quite a tough
ride I'm afraid.
