It depends. Can your host afford that? And what do you mean "faster"? It doesn't quite describe the situation.
  • "Start the VM" (not from paused or saved state) / "observe error" / "shutdown the VM".
  • With the VM completely shut down (not paused or saved), right-click on the VM in the VirtualBox Manager and select "Show Log".
  • Save only the first "VBox.log", ZIP it and attach it to your response (see the "Upload attachment" tab below the reply form).
Do NOT send me Personal Messages (PMs) for troubleshooting, they are simply deleted.
Do NOT reply with the "QUOTE" button, please use the "POST REPLY", at the bottom of the form.

Dual core? Well, in that case the first thing on the shopping list is at least 2 more cores. Or more if you plan to run multiple VMs simultaneously.

It would help if you told us what the guest OS is.

I already told you. I don't know unless I see some logs.

I'm afraid that the question isn't very meaningful, which is probably why no one bothered to answer it last time.

If your application is thrashing, i.e. paging memory to disk because RAM is short, then of course adding more RAM will help, as will installing a faster disk (e.g. an SSD). But, you have not said anything about the application or its requirements, so there is no way to give a proper answer to your question.
