So it seems I don't need to worry that VMWare Fusion 7 would not run optimally on a 2013 Mac Pro thus. Last time I tested a large volume dataset on my development retina MBP in my Fusion VM, it processed it faster than on that virtualised server. Which makes me think that it's really too bad Oracle stopped supporting OS X for their DB Server, but that's another story, and I can understand their reasons if they say that it doesn't make business sense to continue supporting it.Īlso for our volume testing, we use several cloud based server running Linux with a 4-core Xeon, 8GB and some Xen virtualised disks (all hosted at IBM) but also there, having multiple instances of our back-end services and Oracle DB running all on that "smallish" configuration is a frustrating experience.

Installing Linux would be my a good choice too, it's just that Win 7 would get me up and running much faster than going through the hassle of installing a Linux VM (that's short term gain vs long term gain at this time).

For Oracle, it’s helpful to enter oracle database, because there is a range of Oracle products, such as WebLogic and Fusion MIddleware, and we only want the database. I could maybe allocate 12GB out of my 16 to Fusion, as I don't need so much RAM for OS X while working in the VM. 8GB just doesn't cut it when running our java back-end services + tomcat + Oracle DB within that footprint. I expect indeed to be able to allocate much more RAM to the VM and benefit from a faster flash drive than my current 2012 Retina (no PCIe, just SATA3 flash). So yes you'll get a performance increase, but most of that will be due to the 32GB in the Mac Pro. Of course with a retina MBP you do not have those options, but you can replace the machine, it will be good enough for most people and 2nd hand macbook's are still of reasonable value and wanted by a lot of people. My biggest gain for the macbook was upgrading from 8GB to 16GB, the difference between those two memory configurations is pretty huge. Quite often I still do that as it is my main setup, however, when on the road, I just start the database servers on my macbook pro, works just fine as long as I do not run all of them at the same timeīut I pretty much always run database servers as an isolated VM, development is done in another VM. In all fairness 8GB and developing on Oracle databases just doesn't cut it, been there and I ended up connecting to vSphere and database servers hosted on there (Oracle, DB2, PostgreSQL, mySQL, MSSQL).

Ofcourse that will run faster, but I think your main culprit here is the configuration of your macbook.
