I build a new windows 2008, 64 bit with 2vcpus, and 4gb, but it's really slow, all other vms are fine.. is there any known issue?
Which version of ESX are you using?

Are you're using FC oder ISCSI?
Local or Shared Storage?
Set the VM back to one vCPU
Our 2008 64bit run as good or better than their 32bit counterparts. We have had some memory resource limitation and ballooning that has caused slowness throughout our system, but it affects 32 and 64 bit alike.

Hello,
I have the same problem with ESX 3.5 U5. Did you find any issue?

I have a few 2008 64-bit servers that are running fine (with 1GB of RAM to boot). Make sure to set the vCPU back to 1 as I found adding more than a single vCPU messes with the algorithms and generally makes things run worse.
