That makes sense to me.
However, why wouldn't amazon send a note saying, "we want you to reset your password, because we think there was suspicious activity." Then I'd at least know why the reset occurred. Instead they just leave me in the dark.

If calculating a checksum hurts are you being parity bitten?

Naturally; the checksum is a poly-nom-ial.

Yes, but, if the observer is also being observed, how can what the first observer observes depend on what the other observer is observing?

I'd think they'd first have to decide if you brought your cat, no?

So, I have MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2019):
- Processor: 2.3 GHz Intel Core i9
- Memory: 16GB 2400 MHz DDR4
I am using Win10 in VMware VM:
- VMWare Fusion 11.1.0
- Windows 10
In VM, I am using Visual Studio 2019 along with other necessary tools along.
I am struggling to find a decent config for VM such that both my Mac and VM runs smooth. Currently, Windows is sluggish and feels like Pentium 2/3 age where I need to wait for seconds before call to action happens.
I have tried:
- 8/6/4 processors for VM
- 4/6/7/8 GB memory for VM
When VM is running, Mac Activity monitor consistently stays around 14 GB memory. (memory looks loaded). CPU though looks fine.
Seems either I am missing some config or the right combination.
Thoughts/Suggestions?
Do ask if any more/other info helps.

Probably not the answer you are looking for, but... have you tried another VM?
e.g. VirtualBox.
|
|

|

Yeah, wouldn't help. It's a work laptop and licensed VMWare software.

if u have licensed vmware then u can raise a support ticket and maybe they will suggest something for your troubles...

Strange thing, believe this kind of setup is common and not much of already existing support or discussions around (in web).

I'm running a Windows Server 2012 R2 VM using 1 processor core and 8192 MB memory for the VM and it works pretty snappy most of the time. I'm running the same chip as you but I have 32 GB of memory.
I ran this exact VM on an older Mac with the same settings and only 16GB memory on an older chip. The VM on the new Mac is slightly better than the old machine but really "Just Noticeable Difference"
Running VMWare Fusion 11.5.6, updated recently when it was available.

1, that sounds too less, but I will give a try with 2 processor - 8GB memory. thanks!

2.3 Ghz ... haven't run less than 3.4 on my main machine in years. Also, Browsers are not your friend if you like to have a lot of tabs (i.e. processes) open. The GPU plays a role in other than just graphics; more is better. Overall, it would seem you are under-powered for the task at hand.

Neh, office laptop. Single hard disk and nothing of swap drive work.
