For a while now I've been feeling that the virtual machine running the Ubuntu system is laggy and after a bit of time working it became so slow, hardly responsive and annoying to work with. </p> <p>Yesterday, I found out that I was running the virtual machine with a single processor settings. Can't really remember if and when I changed that setting but changing it back to 4 processors made everything snappy and made my day :)</p> <p>Small moments of relief. </p> <p>Any moments like this you can recall?
