How to Vette a Small Venture Capital Firm

I am about to interview as an analyst a small venture capital firm next week, and I'm trying to figure out relevant questions to ask. I want to know fund size, fund performance (probably won't tell me), and opportunity to grow but is there anything else I am missing?
