Parallels doesn't sound normal ...
|

Never used parallels, I am an old user of VMWare Player (free for private usage). VirtualBox used for a while back then, but never convinced me enough to deprecate VMWare.
In my previous machine (13 years old, AMD Phenom II X4 with 8 Gb RAM and a SSD) opening my VM (1 core, 3,5 MB RAM assigned) needed some patience the first 5 to 15 minutes (CPU and RAM almost 100%). Once all services were up and running or idling (CPU back to 10% and RAM around 50%), then I could continue working with it normally.
In my new machine (AMD Ryzen 7 5800x, 32 GB RAM, M2 SSD PCI3) I open 2 different VMs (2 cores and 8 GB RAM assigned to each) without even noticing it. And ready to go within seconds, once inside of guest-windows.
In my case, the things that showed more impact usually were graphic works.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

I am using VMware Workstation Pro, mostly on version 14 something. It was doable but slow almost like a computer with 2GB of memory, but it had 10 GB.
Upgraded to version 16 something. Now it is like the VM has only 500 Mb of memory, instead of the 10GB

Not egg-actlly the first time I heard that crop. Peck any day, feather work or holiday, and they should lay low.

Been so hot here that Sunday would be a good day to hide also.

I've seen a chicken run, but I've never seen a chicken hide!

I grilled a chicken for 2 hours yesterday...
...It STILL wouldn't tell me why it crossed the road!

The answer to all of your questions lies in figuring out on just which side of the road you will find:

I noticed last night that season 5 of The Expanse is available on Amazon Prime Video. Are you aware of this?

You're a little late to the party - season 5 was released last December!

I don't need Amazon Prime to see the Expanse. I just look in the mirror. (Too many biscuits)
Perhaps I need the VB6 Cookbook mentioned in the next article below.

For what it is worth, I like lobster and strong curries.
