[Bug 455112] Re: VirtualBox performance is much worse when Intel VT-x is enabled
@William Davis 1 CPU, IO APIC off. And performance with Intel VT-x is bad, though. It seems that on my Debian etch virtual machine it's the opposite - VT-x increases performace (but I don't have any reliable tests). Windows XP machine works terrible with virtualization on. -- VirtualBox performance is much worse when Intel VT-x is enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/455112 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs -- universe-bugs mailing list universe-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs
[Bug 455112] Re: VirtualBox performance is much worse when Intel VT-x is enabled
michal: How many virtual CPU's do you have for your VM? Through experimentation, I've just discovered that I can get good performance with VT-x enabled if I set the number of CPU's to 1 on my Core 2 Duo machine (P8700). I was able to set it to 2 CPU's under Jaunty without a problem -- but the performance with it set to 1 CPU in Karmic is excellent, so I don't know if this is a bug or a feature. -- VirtualBox performance is much worse when Intel VT-x is enabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/455112 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs -- universe-bugs mailing list universe-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs

I have the same experience with the VirtualBox-3.0 PUEL version from sun's repository. With VT-x/AMD-V enabled, my Windows XP Pro virtual machine is unusable.

[Bug 455112] Re: VirtualBox performance is much worse when Intel VT-x is enabled
I think that about a year ago I had a similar problem on a borrowed notebook. I don't remember if it has Intel or AMD CPU, but it had virtualization support and turning on using it in VirtualBox caused everything to run a few times slower. So it seems it's a long-time issue... Did sb report it to Sun? ** Description changed: Binary package hint: virtualbox-ose I have Dell Latitude E6500 with P8600 CPU. When I run my Windows XP guest on VirtualBox OSE without virtualization VT-x option inactive it runs much faster than in the case I turn it on. It is really visible - with VT-x on I even see how screen flickers during the boot process. I did Peacekeeper tests in Firefox and I got these results: 1) VT-x off, 3D support off - 1596 2) VT-x off, 3D support on - 1679 3) VT-x on, 3D support off - 900 4) VT-x on, 3D support on - 1314 Google Chrome behaves even more strange - with VT-x off it runs faster - than Firefox while with VT-x on it runs *VERY* slow but looses no frames - in graphic tests and it finally gets sth like 8800 points. + than Firefox, while with VT-x on it runs *VERY* slow but looses no + frames in graphic tests and it finally gets about 8800 points.
