[Dev] Chandler too slow for VMWare

[John Anderson]

I get somewhere between 3.3 to 3.8 minutes launch from a command line 
using Linux on VMWare (3Ghz P4, 1G RAM). By comparison on native win32 
launch time is 52 seconds on the same machine.

Everything else on VMWare is zippy -- besides Chandler. I guess our 
performance is so bad that VMWare isn't an option, so I'm going to have 
to go buy a disk to run Chandler on Linux.
