This week-end I've upgraded from VMPlayer 2.5.3 to 3.0 on Ubuntu 9.04 and was disappointed by one thing. The speed of suspend/resume. In 2.5.3, it would take about 3 seconds to suspend a virtual machine (the title bar actually disappearing when printing out 49%, strange indeed but that the way it was). After that, if I was restarting the virtual machine right away, it would resume almost immediately.
Now with 3.0, it takes a good 10 to 15 seconds to suspend and this time the progress bar goes up to 100%. And if I restart the virtual machine right away it takes about the same amount of time to resume.
What has changed? Is this a VMWare Player setting?
Thanks for any input,
Manu
