Normally when I run this same project file in a physical windows machine or even when I ran it in the Parallels or Virtual box, the time for each file be compiled was 0-1 sec, but here it takes 2-3 sec. Is it somehow possible that the VM is not actually using all the capacity of the processor?Īs you can see in the pictures above, this kind of project is composed my many small pieces of code and each of them has its own "compiling time" reported. Unfortunately no signficant change was noticed. In other hand, I did change the Hard disk buffering from automatic to Enable and tested it. I'm not measuring a "copy to the VM" process. What I could try to go for is to have it preallocated, but I'm not so sure on that, since the files I'm accessing are in the VM already. Regarding disk access, I had it already using NVMe, and the same configuration in the others Virtualization Softwares. When reducing from 6 to 4 cores, there was a consistent increase of compiling time of 15sec total, which percentage is not much. Regarding the CPU usage, my understanding is that the compiler is not multi thread, at least I can't see more than one core firing up when compiling. then remove that new disk again and change the disk type of the boot disk.Īs always when you start experimenting like this it is always a good idea to have a good backup (or at the very least a snapshot before the experiment)
Then boot so that windows installs the driver.
One trick is to add a new disk of the type you want to change to.

you have to be aware that Windows needs to install the driver first, before you change or otherwise you might not be able to boot until you switch it back. It should be NVMe, but I guess it depends on the guest and a few other factors. Then comes SATA, it's good for normal use, but not very performant.Īctually there's been some debate between what is fastest. IDE is slowest, but I would be surprised if you used that. but subsequential compiles might.Īnother important part is what kind of virtual hard disk type you choose. it would not be the initial compile that benefits. Yet I suggest to try "enable" to see if it helps. Under settings -> advanced -> hard disk buffering As long as you don't start much processes at the host (running chrome would probably be noticable) Yet in some typical heavy used multi thread processes it might still give you a little bit extra. There's a couple of factors that come to play with compiling speed.ĭepending on the compiler, more threads might help.Īs dlhotka already mentioned, it is best not to overprovision CPU resources.

Parallels Desktop Pro Edition Version 16.1.Īny guesses on what can be done to have Fusion performing better?
#PARALLELS VS VMWARE FUSION VS VIRTUALBOX SOFTWARE#
The virtual machine had all the same software architecture and constellation of applications. The software to be compiled was an Industrial Automation software written in many languages using Siemens Step7 v5.6 for CPU 317F.
#PARALLELS VS VMWARE FUSION VS VIRTUALBOX HOW TO#
My intention here it's not to put in discussion which virtualization software is better, but to find out how to make my Fusion 12 to get better.įor information, all the tests bellow were performed in a MBP 2018 2.6 Ghz Intel Core i7 with 16Gb 2400MHz, they were all Win10 Pro with 6Gb of RAM and 6 Cores. Dear All, I recently had issue with the time expended to compile the code of a software I was working on, and I had to compile and recompile the software many times due to conditions that are not the moment to explain, I've performed many experiments trying to get the best performance out of my system.
