Win10 guest slow on MacPro with 10.14.4
Posted: 22. May 2019, 20:31
Mohave 10.14.4
Mac Pro, Mid 2012
2 x 3.46 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon
64 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
AMD Radeon HD 7950 3 GB
Tried EFI/Non EFI
4 CPUs assigned, 8 GB RAM.
Tried with most recent build, extensions and guest additions installed correctly.
Tried with all graphics acceleration disabled, and again with 3D graphics enabled.
All guests are too slow to even think about using. This started happening immediately after upgrade to Mohave, and has been going on for a long time. I've read everything I can find.
What am I missing? I really don't want to buy a subscription to Parallels even though the eval version of that works beautifully.
EDIT: It's running better, but I can't assign much resources without it bogging down again. I have 12cores and 24 threads - I can only go to 2 before it starts lagging. 8 GB ram seems to be about the limit - of 64 GB. The default execution cap was too low. I set it to 100%.
While this is usable and snappy enough for browsing and such, I really can't use it for anything very heavy duty. I wasn't so limited on High Sierra.
I've attached the current log.
