I have installed fme server on a virtual machine and tested some heavy fme workspces, it took long time untill finished. around 20 hours.
Then I installed the same version of fmeserver on a physical machine(server). (both machines have same configurations ( same CPU cores, same RAM memories etc.).
I tested the heavy workspace on physical machine and the performance was way better. the whole process took 4 hours.
my question is: is the physical machine better than virtual machine and why? they are both identical as configurations.
