Not slow because of many requests, slow because cpu execution time is like 30 times slower, effectively running like 100Mh i486 cpu (benchmark on the console only, disconnect all network NIC. So no ; not because of Google :-) Obviously vmware is doing something nasty. When the box is slow and high load, the host load is still rather low.
