RE: dlhotka - "Hyperthreaded cores don't count"
- My "Virtual Machine | Settings" Shows 8 cores on my MacBook Pro. I changed from 2 to 4 and things are running much better. If Hyperthreaded cores doe\n't count then I would have all 4 physical cores assigned to the VM and 0 to the Mac ... but The Mac side is running fine. So it *appears* that HT cores do count in this instance.
RE: Wila - When you say - I "repaired" my VMware Tools - it is not clear to me what you mean.
- I chose "Virtual Machine | Reinstall VMware Tools" from the VMware Fusion.
FINAL UPDATE:
I am running with Fusion 8.02 now.
I increased my allocated RAM from 2Mb (the recommended) to 4mb for the VM (I have 8MB total on my MacBook Pro.)
And I increased the number of CPU cores from 2 to 4 cores for the VM (I have a total of 8 cores [4 physical + 4 virtual/hyperthreaded] on my MBP Intel i7).
The speed and responsiveness has improved greatly on the VM.
I have no more performance complaints now. Working as expected.
Thanks for the help.
