| Sep 23, 2012 at 14:43 | comment | added | rubenvb | "large compiles" actually still work faster in a VM than in Windows. This even for GCC on Linux vs MSVC on Windows. | |
| Sep 18, 2012 at 1:31 | comment | added | Cetin Sert | While disk I/O may be an issue for large files, I do remember consistently experiencing incredibly faster many number of small files type of IO operations in guest OSes. I thought this could be because these file IO operations perhaps never really touch the real hard drive (cached by VirtualBox/VMWare etc. in RAM temporarily and written asynchronously to the VMs harddrive image file causing no delays inside the VM) or touch only a single file / location of the hard drive (namely, the VM harddrive image file) instead of many small real files. | |
