>> Could you share details on what the host Mac configuration is, what the VM configuration, etc.

Host: MacBook Air M2, macOS 13.5, VMware Fusion Player 13.0.2.

Guest: 3D acceleration enabled with 8 GB memory, network adapter = "share with my Mac"

The vmx file of the machine is attached to this post.

 

>> Where do you have your VM located? Internal disk or external disk? HDD or SSD? APFS or HFS+ formatted?

On the internal SSD of the laptop, APFS formatted.

 

>> Do you have any A/V installed on the Mac. If so, is it set to exclude virtual machines from scanning?

Not sure what you mean by A/V. Audio/Video?

 

>> Do you have open-vm-tools and open-vm-tools-desktop packages installed in the VM?

Yes

 

>> Is the VM running with X11 or Wayland (is environment variable XDG_SESSION_TYPE set ti wayland)?

Wayland

 

>> What is the virtual machine's networking type set to? Is it possible that you have a bottleneck with your network connectivity?

The networking is set to "share with my Mac". To test the network bottleneck idea I ran a few ping commands in the guest/VM, and this did not show any delays at all.
