Best Performance out of My Hardware

Hello,
I'm using eve-ng with Workstation Pro 14.
It works, but it's VERY slow.
My hardware:

i9-7980xe (yes, I'm lucky and happy!)
64gb DDR4 Ram (+128GB SSD on M2 totally dedicated to swap)
ASUS ROG STRIX X299-XE GAMING LGA2066
(1080 T as GPU but this doesn't count... i think)

Ok, i'm using community version of eve-ng and these are the resources I gave to VM on workstation:
RAM: 50000MB
CPU: 4 processor x 4 core per processor = 16 Processors

I'm just trying to boot a AsaV device and it take nearly 10 minutes, and it's really slow.

I've Avast Premiere, and excluded vmware folder and virtual machine folder.
I tried intel turbo boost on all vmware *exe.

Am I doing something wrong?!

Thanks.


Riccardo

Many thanks for your reply.

I just unistalled Avast (this is just an excuse, I hated it since I installed, now I convinced my self unistalling thanks to this).

Just to be sure.. Is there a "virtualization friendly" antivirus? Is windows defender "virtualization friendly"?!

Thanks again for help!

Avast was exactly OK, all you need was to disable this option and reboot your pc
