Hi

 

I'm currently trying "Xelabo's Mac OS X 10.5.5 VMware Image" with VMware Player On Windows XP SP3.

 

My spec are :

2,01Ghz AMD AThlon 64 X2 Dual 3800+

1Go DDR2

 

Absolutely everything is Setup and Work as intended (Ethernet, VMware Tools, etc.)

My problem is that Leopard run extremely slow even while idle.

 

I know this has been discussed many times but I try every solution I could find on this forum and on other website but nothing worked :P

 

I'm nearly sure it's not a "normal" slowdown due to the way my mouse, my screen or folders acting (from 2 to 6 seconds). For example downloading files at normal speed is ok but compiling tiny C/C++ file with BCC (thanks to XCode) is really long !

 

I only need this platform to compile a project on Mac.

 

I will probably try older Tiger version of this VM image but doubt this will fix my problem.

 

Please could you help me ?

So I try the same Image with my laptop :

Dell XPS1330 2Ghz intel core 2 duo

2go DDR2 dual channel

NVIDIA GeForceTM Go 8400M GS with 128MB dedicated DDR3 graphics memory

 

I allowed 1024Mo and even 1280Mo of RAM in VM but even if the performance are a little bit better I still get that kind of very slow reaction.

 

Fortunately I successfully compile my project with GCC and XCode but it take all night long to compile the libraries... While less than a minute to compile my project.

 

There is definitely something strange there...

 

Could you help Me ?

 

PS: Also did the power saving tricks for CPU fluctuation.
