Hello!
I'm using VirtualBox for a long time. And now I first time have problem and can't solve it.
In my old PC Intel PIV 3.00 processor 2G RAM I had no any problems with virtualization.
Now I have Intel Core2Duo E8500 3.16 with 4G RAM. And everithing working too slow in VM. Windows moving not continious.
Both host and guest systems are linux.
I'm running VirtualBox in Debian Lenny i386. The only difference between old and new PC is in kernel. Now I'm using "bigmem" version of kernel 2.6.26 for 4Gb to be seen.

Please, help me to solve the problem.

Thanks. Will wait and hope. It seems that the problem is in bigmem kernel support as I understood.
