Numberzz Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 What has been the experience with the speed of Parallels with a Quad processor machine? ie compared to a native machine... well, parallels only uses 1 core, so if u arent using multiple applications, or a photoshop or something similar, u wont notice a big speed difference. anything that has been compiled for more than one core comps, u will notice a speed difference Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/62103-parallels-performance-with-a-quad-processor/#findComment-440095 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhalls Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 vmware uses all cores (you can set how much cores it should use). seems pretty nice.
