that depends. if you mean a virtural computer on the harddrive. it is casued by the different levels of the pc, the IO might need to go by the main OS to actualy do things. like using the cpu or the ram. if it is on a usp too it will slow it down even more cause of less dedicated IO space, since the USB is conected different than a SATA.
Of course because virtual drives don't have full capabilities that of full-on PC's do. Virtual drives are simply like a miniature version of an operating system!
Because your VD is running the 2nd OS, while the direct PC OS is also running.
any high end database(datacenter) server, exchange server, any high end appliaction server which require dedicated physical resources will work better on physical then virtual. They will work slow on Virtual servers
This is because Java runs it's code through a Virtual Machine which compiles it and runs it. C will compile native on your machine and the code will be run directly, without the use of a virtual machine.
If you're using a computer, I'd recommend that you have at least 512mb of RAM installed on your machine, although you can get by with less, but it'll be slower. You can also use the `virtual memory' option, which uses free space on your hard drive in place of the RAM.

There are programming languages in which the source file is read and interpreted directly, but those are usually slower than when the program is compiled, to an EXE, or as in Java, for a virtual machine.
No.In fact virtual memory is a desperate last resort.... You system performance grinds to a halt during extensive virtual memory usage because reading and writing from a mechanical drive with spinning platters is exponentially slower than simply accessing real RAM.
Answer(Techsupport)Resolution: RAM and virtual memory are two different things. Virtual memory allows you to use a portion of your hard drive as though it were RAM. Your hard drive is up to 100 times slower than RAM, so virtual memory is much slower than RAM. When you upgrade your RAM, you can reduce or eliminate the use of virtual memory. Upgrading RAM makes memory available to complete tasks previously handled by virtual memory.
Virtual memory management assist in the process of multitasking by providing extra memory when a computer has used up all its RAM. Virtual memory is however slower than RAM.
It is the memory paging file that is used to manage virtual memory in the Microsoft Windows operating systems. When you don't have enough hardware RAM, the operating system can page (map) data to and from the hard drive in the file that it designates "pagefile.sys" in the root of the main OS logical drive (typically drive C). This is typically slower than transfers to and from actual RAM.
LimeWire is written in the Java programming language. Rather than being written for a specific operating system, it is written for the Java virtual machine. This way, any operating system with such a machine, such as Windows, Mac OS X, or Linux can run it without modification. This usually comes with a slight performance overhead in memory and CPU usage. On a fairly modern computer, this will have no noticeable impact, but it can make an older computer slightly less responsive. Not that this is not the same thing as "making your computer slow." LimeWire will not affect performance when it is not running. Simply having it installed will not make your computer slower.
Linux is not faster or slower than any other operating system, necessarily. Apparent "speed" of operating system functions is controlled by many variables.
Some pros and cons of GUI in operating system are: Pros: -Easy to learn -Harder to make mistakes Cons: -Slower if you know what you want done
When your PC runs of of physical memory - it uses the hard drive as memory so it's much slower when it gets to that point.
