I've spent haft a day to find out while the last virtual machine runs so slow. I have a host machine with 8GB RAM running 4 virtual machines. They take around 7.5GB memory and the last powered on machine runs very slow. Taskmgr.exe ussualy takes 30 to 50 percent of CPU usage. After reducing memory for the last machine from 2GB to 1.5GB, it runs fast again. More info: the host machine runs Windows 2008 x64, two of the virtual machines run Windows 2003 x86, and two others run Windows 2008 x64. Thank you.
