VMware Laggy Kali - SiZe_Scopez - Jan 19, 2016

Try adding more ram and cpu cores in vmware to the desired VM.

That's what you get for using a VM, that is common. Why not just use a live USB or even dual boot?

Its been laggy for everyone, common complaint. Id live USB boot until they make a fix for it

did you install vmware tools?

I'm also using Kali in VMware. It was really choppy, but since I installed VMware tools, it's been fine albeit not as fast as it would be when installed directly on the metal.

If you want to have full performance, it would be better to dual boot.
