Hmmm.. 13th gen Intel processor. Windows does a crappy job of trying to schedule threads to run on P-cores vs E-cores. 

Have you tried to disable Windows setting the power throttling on the vmx executable:

From a command prompt run as Administrator:

powercfg /powerthrottling disable /path "C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware Workstation\x64\vmware-vmx.exe"

The path may be different on your system, so you might have to search around to find the right location for the vmware-vmx.exe file.
