We had a poor experience running RedDot on a Windows-based VM. Performance for SmartEdit users was unacceptable once we had 3 or more concurrent users.
Experienced the poor performance regardless of how many other VM were running on the host server - Originally we had 3, and had just RedDot running on a VM before moving it to a dedicated server. The VM Host had 16G of ram, 4 dual core processors - didn't seem to make a difference how much processor and ram that our admins made available to the VM, we were unable to achieve a satisfactory level of performance. We now run RedDot CMS on a dedicated Windows 2003 platform, Quad 3GHz Xeon, 2G ram We do experience slowdowns when publishing jobs run, but these are brief - and we typically schedule jobs to run outside of work hours to minimize impact on editors.
