VMware Fusion vs Parallels Benchmark tests with HDBench



This is a japanese version , translated in English. This guy used HDBench.

When you look at the result, now presently with function of speed and Coherence Mode etc,
As for the difference of Parallels and VMWARE you felt that it is large.
At present time Parallels probably is best selection.
Originally because VMWARE was used, we would like to expect rollback future to.


So the HDBench tests , according to him, tend to tilt in Parallels favor. I still am waiting for my MacBook Pro, so I can't say anything about it. Anyways check out both his benchmark test series Part 1 and Part 2 respectively.

Note: John Troyer rightly noted that its meaningless to compare a GA vs Beta product. But I also saw that he used a HDBench beta product, would that make the whole comparison a waste? I wouldn't use a benchmark tool in Beta myself!

The Framingham, Mass., company offers consulting services for companies that use virtualization software to improve the performance of corporate servers and cut costs in their data centers. GlassHouse also provides Internet-based data storage. "Software-as-a-service," or SaaS, companies and vendors of virtualization products have proved popular among investors in recent years as corporate customers seek alternatives to conventional packaged software. GlassHouse, with roots in both sectors, will test the strength of that interest, said Peter Falvey, managing director with Boston investment bank Revolution Partners. "It will be a bit of a bell weather," he says. "It's not as though it's the 15th SaaS m...
