Found the same on a 2015 rMBP with max specs (Sierra, 16GB RAM, Core i7). It's much less performant with exactly the same VM as VirtualBox.
In fact, it ate my entire CPU while it was running, even when the VM OS (Windows 10) settled down after startup. and was apparently running no CPU-intensive processes.
It also crashed twice in the space of an hour, bringing down the entire VM, necessitating a restart.
Not touching Veertu again for a long time.
- izik_e2 10y agoMaybe it was because windows update was running in the background?
- doodyhead 10y agoCould very well have been a factor. I gave up on it quickly. Repeatedly crashing renders it an unnecessary annoyance. VirtualBox works well enough, is stable and reliable, and Veertu doesn't distinguish itself enough to merit the pain in switching.
