Slow virtualbox guests after update to 5.2
Posted: 14. Nov 2017, 16:05
Hello,
I have seen similar topics here but I wanted to provide more info maybe this will be helpful in solving problems:
VirtualBox software:
VirtualBox-5.2.1-119001-Linux_amd64.run
VBoxGuestAdditions_5.2.1-118995.iso
VBoxGuestAdditions_5.1.30.iso
Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-5.2.1-118994.vbox-extpack
VirtualBox Host: Slacware current 64bit
RAM 32GB
Video Haswell hybrid: nouveau
disk: SSD 1.5TB
kernel 4.13.12 or 4.14
virtual box clients are slow:
Problem I see while GUI is fast,
in console window cursor lags visibly (several miliseconds up to 1s possibly)
this is not related to VBoxGuestAdditions. Changing VirtualBox-5.2.1-119001-Linux_amd64.run to
VirtualBox-5.1.30-118389-Linux_amd64.run fixes problem (obviously I have to tun kernel 4.13.12 or less after downgrading virtualbox)
