This is an interim improvement for the SCVMM inventory collection script. It turns out that some of the information we were collecting for VM's and images using powershell functions in a loop were already available as properties. This means a 3x reduction in the number of calls per VM and a 2x reduction in the number of calls per image.
While not as fast as the upcoming JSON implementation, I saw significant improvements. As a standalone WinRM script, the older implementation typically took 120-150 seconds. This implementation typically came in around 80 seconds.
