How does it perform after you shut down all the other running guests?

I count a total of 25 guests - is that correct?

And besides low performance, the system became very hot.

Hello,

I have only one guest running.

VMware Workstation Pro on Linux is very bad compared to its Windows version.

I have workstation 12 Pro running on Debian Jessie and it works perfectly. There is something wrong with your installation.

Hello,

It's normal now, fortunately.

It should be some Windows issue.
