Mac OS X Server Guest Machine reboot very slow

I'm running Mac OS X Server 10.6.2 guest machine on Mac OS X 10.6.5 host machine.

When I reboot guest OS from inside the guest machine (sudo reboot), it takes a long time(>5 minutes)

for the VM to finish reboot. If I simply shutdown and power on the guest machine from fusion, it's

much fast.

What could be the cause?

Thanks in advance Smiley Happy

What's the host hardware and guest configuration?  Sounds like you're out of resources.

I don't think it's out of resource.

The host machine is 2.66GHZ intel Core 2 Duo processor with 2GB memory; while the guest's 1GB memory with 1 Processor
