Hi Tim

I have MacBookPro (17", 4GB RAM, 2.5Ghz, Snow Leopard) and recently installed VMware Fusion 3 and Windows 7. I don't have any locking up, but frankly did not like the fact that it runs slowly. I allocated 2GB and 2core virtual machine for my WMwareF3, but still it is slow.
I just filed a support ticket and waiting for some help.

what really bothers me that most of the programs I open in Windows7 works slowly as if something else consumes resources and thus nothing left for my program. I haven't seen any crashing or locking, but performance wise it is not really nice. I use MS Visual Studio 2008 for my projects. When I compile a whole project, it is usually 2-3 minutes for compiling and linking. It is almost 12 minutes with WMware + Windows 7.

So far, I have used bootcamp (vista installed) and it works pretty fast , I haven't noticed much performance issue. This is the first time I used a virtualization program like VMware and frankly not happy so far. I hope they will help us out soon.

regards
Bulent
