I manage to install using the VMFusion method post in the video on my Hp micro server gen 8 1230v2 Xeon CPU in the cache drive, given 4GB ram, 4 CPUs. The performance is quite slow, still usable but just very slow. No graphic card install on the server.
Anyway I can improve the overall speed on it? the xml and any config I use is base on the video.

Hi 1812,
I put it in SSD drive (Cosair Force 3 240GB) and set to only for the domain folder.
the XML is exactly the same as the video:
