    How bad does the RAM issue affect your VM number you want to run vs

default along with both Whonix templates and split GPG?

yes, a part from the system VMs, I usually run 6 VMs. When the machine is fresh started I can easily reach 9 VMs.  But after a couple of days working it doesn't let me start new VMs.

    How does it actually run performance wise?


Smooth and fast.

But I never tried gaming or specially intensive tasks.

The ivy bridge CPUs are pretty fast.. the last generation before Intel cut max wattage in half with haswell.

BTW there are little tricks to improving RAM usage, as my regular system has 8GB. Net and proxy VMs can usually be set to max 350MB RAM, and I find dom0+KDE works smoothly with max RAM at 1500MB. Most personal and work VMs do fine with max RAM at 1500 - 2000MB.
