Methods and systems for I/O acceleration on a virtualized information handling system include loading a storage virtual appliance as a virtual machine on a hypervisor. The hypervisor may execute using a first processor and a second processor. The storage virtual appliance is accessed by the hypervisor using a PCI-E device driver that is mapped to a first PCI-E NTB logical endpoint at the first processor. A second PCI-E device driver may be loaded on the storage virtual appliance that accesses the hypervisor and is mapped to a second PCI-E NTB logical endpoint at the second processor. A data transfer operation may be executed between a first memory space that is mapped to the first PCI-E NTB logical endpoint and a second memory space that is mapped to the second PCI-E NTB logical endpoint. The data transfer operation may be a read or a write operation.
