Hello,
I have a beefy i7, 16 GB RAM, 15 inch 2018 MacBook Pro. I've installed VirtualBox (latest) and Extension Packs (latest).
Doesn't matter how many resources I allocate, all VMs, with any kind of graphical UI, are absolutely crawling. I've made a "demo", you can find it at h ttps:// screencast. com/t/Z5wwjjim (first post so can't post links).
Here's the complete log of a session: h ttps:// gist.github. com/Razva/37d72e418cd121ad7322a86e695e7a56
Is this "the norm"? Any way to improve it?
Thank you,
Razvan

Razvan, this is *not* cool! I was talking to you live on IRC, solving your problem, and you "forgot" to mention that you were simultaneously posting on the forums? Really?
I have two words for you: not cool...

Asking on IRC and on forums is quite common. In fact, I think that this occasion is the first one on which somebody got offended because of this. We're all different, I guess, so sorry if you got offended.
Anyway, as per our discussion, I've:
Thank you for your support!

- lowered the resolution to 800x600
- set 2 CPUs
