I came across this working on my XP VMWare machine...

I was frustrated by extremely slow XP virtual machine while running RSLogix 5000 for troubleshooting. I noticed it a couple of weeks ago on another VM, XP machine with Siemens Step7 software.

I found the solution online.... It was caused by my AVAST software. I uninstalled it, and the problem went away. Hopefully this helps someone.
 
Thanks for the info.

I run Step 7 v5.5 in a Win XP VM VixtualBox and it runs pretty fast.
I love how it save and recover the state in a few seconds.
I recently changed my computer and I was able to recreate the VM just by copying a file.
