Windows VMs slow - unusable

Featured Replies

Since few days, my VMs are very slow, at the point it's almost unusable. 

 

I don't know exactly where to start. I don't think it's a hardware issue, as I've configured:

- 16 CPU -  Intel® Xeon® E-2388G CPU @ 3.20GHz

- 8gb RAM DDR4 ECC

- disk on SSD NVME

 

There is no difference if I use VNC or RDP

 

Any help is more than welcome

 

thank you

If you have time maybe worth rebooting and creating a new diags. There is a Docker which seems to be restarting over and over, cannot see much more in the logs.

 

Are you using the nvidia vgpu driver?

as you are using the vgpu plugin I would post on their support pages. I cannot see anything on the new logs.

@N47H4N - If you resolve the issue can you post it here please? I have extremely poor VM performance and will be moving my VM's from SSD to NVME in the new year, to try and fix the issue. I have tried a lot of different 'fixes' with no noticable improvement.

@SimonF I've deleted the plugin for testing purpose, no changment

@showstopper my VMs are running on NVME, but they are unusable. I don't think the problem is related to the storage

Ah, that's disappointing to hear! My NVMe comes tomorrow, so i'll let you know

@showstopper I hope your problem is different than mine. Let me know if it's fix your issue

A setting that noticeably improved my Windows 11 VM performance was disabling the Windows "Memory integrity" option. From the Windows Start menu, search for "Core isolation" and open that page. I'm curious if this is enabled and if disabling it helps you at all.

I have installed the NVMe and...

 

WOW what a difference! Absolute night and day. I am wondering if my old SSD is faulty, although it passes all tests.
