memory

Hello, I'm using Singular within a Linux virtual machine for mathematical research purposes. My calculations run for very long periods, so I regularly take snapshots. These computations require extremely large amounts of memory, and the current 128GB limit is insufficient for my needs. I...

Could you please help me understand the typical RAM usage on a MacBook Pro with the M4 Pro chip running macOS 15.5 Sequoia in the following scenarios? When the system is idle with no applications running. When Parallels Desktop is open, but no virtual machine is running. When running a Windows...

Well, I have two VMs configured with 64GB of RAM, one Windows 11 (24H2) and the other one being Ubuntu 24.04. If I start up the Windows one, then MacOS (Sequoia 15.0.1 (24A348)) tells me that the memory consumption of this VM is about 64GB whereas within Windows itself almost none of it is...

App version: 20.1.0 Computer: MacBook M1 Pro A2442 - 32GB RAM Guest VM OS: Sequoia 15.0.1 Host OS: Sequoia 15.0.0 RAM assigned to Guest VM: Anybody know why I am seeing such high numbers in the activity monitor for the MacOS guest vm. I see 2 processes for the same. One is 8.24 GB which is...

In a Sequoia beta host + Sequoia beta virtual machine configuration, and perhaps others where Sequoia is involved, there is a bug where the memory usage of the virtual machine service will double on restart, so, for example, your 8 GB virtual machine will take 16 GB. In some cases, the RAM usage...

After I install parallel Desktop in Macbook with Intel CPU, the Memory speed is 2667Mhz, but it shows 667Mhz, and I have no way to fix it, how can I fix this? thanks.

I'm considering purchasing Parallels for my Mac because I've found Visual Studio and Rider to be quite cumbersome to use on macOS. I'm accustomed to the smooth experience of Visual Studio on Windows, so I'm contemplating whether 8GB of RAM will suffice for running Visual Studio smoothly for...

Windows has a Fast Startup feature that, as I understand it, copies the contents of memory into a hiberfil.sys file on shutdown. I have a few questions regardin this: 1. First, is this a feature that works on a Parallels Desktop VM? Or if, when I exit out of Parallels, the hiberfil.sys file is...

Hello, I'm trying to create a memory dump of a running Parallels virtual machine on my Mac M1 using the prlctl command. I'm using the following command: sudo prlctl internal {UUID} dbgdump --path ~/Desktop//dumps/ I replace {UUID} with the actual UUID of my virtual machine. When I run this...

There seems to be something wrong with Parallels Resource Monitor - it seems to show a wrong Windows memory consumption: I am running Windows 10 in a Parallels VM. The Resource Monitor shows 21 GB of Windows memory consumption: On its right side, you can see the popular CleanMem Windows tool...

Crash submission 387860639. Using Apple M1 Pro with Parallels 17.1.1. Ubuntu 20.04 guest VM is crashing on boot after upgrading packages (or even just installing git). Previous snapshot (before upgrade) is NOT crashing for some reason. Found some threads that suggested this was due to CD...

Hello everyone, I have a question，my computer system is MacOS Big Sur 11.4, parallels is 16.5.1, and memory is 16g. I only start parallels, and then the memory in parallels virtual machine immediately reaches 70%? Why? Is there anyone like me? I looked at the memory analysis, in which...

The instruction at 0x0007FFD248FC303 referenced a memory at 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF. The memory could not be read. This is the error I am getting after installing Parallels Access on a Windows 10 pro 64 bit. The agent looks like it is running, but when I go to access it (remote connect with an...

Hi, I've been using parallels for almost 10 years.... I recently bought a new mac (much more powerful than my previous one) and decided to update to Parallels 15. What I found was that an older mac with a Parallels 8 works faster than my new one with parallels 15!!!! that's because the CPU and...

I just set up a Mojave VM to keep my "old" 32-bit Apps running. In the configurations I can set the graphic memory up to 2 GB, but in the VM only 256 MB is shown. This affects the installation of MS Office 2011:Mac and software that needs more graphic memory (Civ V and others) won't start up. I...

I allocated 8Gb for a Windows 10 Pro guest OS on Mac. Why do I see that it takes 13 Gb from Mac OS in Activity Monitor? I understand there should be an overhead, but why does it take from Mac OS almost twice the memory allocated for Windows?

It won't let me adjust the memory bar when I do I get this error message " A disk configuration error has occurred. Make sure that you have read/write permissions for the disk." " Error: PRL_ERR_DISK_FILE_OPEN_ERROR (0x80021014) Path: '/Users/engrbundle/Parallels/My Boot Camp.pvm/APPLE SSD...

I'm running PD10 for Mac v10.4.0 with Windows 7 as guest on an iMac 5k with 16gb of memory. Parallels is taking more memory every hour until ultimately it crashes. See images below for details, first is right after launch. Is this a bug? Any suggestions for a fix would be much appreciated...

I've gone through multiple posts and articles showing how to increase your RAM through Configure->Hardware when the VM is not running but I'm still unable to change the current amount allocated. I recently downloaded Parallels desktop 13 for Mac and have a new iMac purchased in the last year...

I'm a virtual newbie to Parallels (used it a long time ago but haven't used it for years). I have an iMac with 16GB RAM and want to allocate 8GB RAM, but Parallels is auto configured to 2GB. I've read the article 113649 which instructs to shut down the virtual machine then change the memory, but...
