Speed Up Mac OS X While Running Parallels

cavemonkey50.com — If you use Parallels on a Mac, you may notice that Parallels consumes massive amounts of RAM; even above and beyond the amount you gave the client operating system. What's worse is the performance hit lingers even after the application is closed. This is due to a bug in the Parallels software. Luckily there is a quick and easy way to fix this bug.

  • HobbesDoo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2This is an awesome tip. I installed the latest beta and noticed an incredible performance degradation. I suspected Parallels, but didn't know how to fix it. Thanks.

    was wondering why that happened but never had time to look through the VM config.
    need visio running in parallels alongside indesign for work and you can imagine that every MB of memory is precious.
