Xcode Freezing on Mojave VirtualBox

Setting up a Mac development build system on Windows using VirtualBox and Mojave. I got everything installed correctly, and it’s basically functioning fine, but whenever I try to build a project or do anything memory intensive in Xcode, it just freezes and beachballs. I never get any error messages or anything, and it does it on different types of projects. I have 8 GB of RAM allocated, so I think that should be sufficient. Anyone running to this issue? Thanks!

Host: Windows 10
Guest: macOS Mojave

A Windows 10 host running a macOS guest tends to mean only one thing... a Hackintosh on non-Apple hardware! This is not supported and is also a violation of Apple's End User License Agreement (EULA). More details can be found at: Important notice regarding Mac OS X as Guest

Had you searched around the forums you would have seen that there are many similar threads all of which end up in the same state - locked and consigned to oblivion. Yours will be sent the same way the next time a site admin / mod passes by unless you can prove that you have genuine Apple hardware.

In the really rare case (0.001%) that this is actually an Apple computer, in which you have installed Windows, and you're trying to boot a legitimate OSX guest and not a Hackintosh, send me a PM and I'll remedy the situation. Be prepared to provide evidence in such a case.
