After upgrading from Workstation 7 to Workstation 9 I have performance issues.
The host PC has 4 GB RAM, a 4core Intel CPU and Windows XP SP3.
My feeling (it's a feeling, I don't have detailed data) is that guest VMs run slower and that while a guest VM is running it's quite impossible to run other applications on the host PC, mainly Outlook.
Performances are even worse if guest VM load 64 bit operating systems.
Given I can't upgrade the host's HW, what can I do to locate possible bottlenecks and improve VMware Workstation 9 performances?
