Performance Running Matlab in a Virtual machine with windows 10

We have created a Virtual Machine in an VMware esxi Server and the user is complaining about the performance of the VM. Just looking on internet i read that we have poor performance with xeon CPU. is it true? Seem we can mitigate this installing parallel toolbox but from what i have understood also the code it must be rewritten in the correct way. we can fix in any way?

Hi Giovanni,

According to this thread - https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/84203-relatively-poor-matlab-performance-in-server-environments?s_tid=answers_rc1-3_p3_MLT, you might be running the MATLAB process on a single server core having a comparatively lower processor clock speed.

As a possible solution, you might want to try out the answer on this thread - https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/152259-poor-matlab-performance-on-intel-xeon-processor?s_tid=answers_rc1-1_p1_BOTH

I was unable to find any article or post which corroborates that MATLAB has poor performance with Xeon CPU and hence don't think that's the case.
