Priority (Windows Hosts Only)
The Priority tab lets you determine the priority that the Windows process scheduler gives to your virtual machines when mouse and keyboard input are going to a particular virtual machine and when input is not going to that virtual machine.
You can adjust these settings to improve overall system performance based on the relative priority of work you are doing in various virtual machines and on the host computer.
To change the settings for a particular virtual machine, and override the global settings, open the virtual machine you want to adjust, choose VM > Settings, click the Options tab, select Advanced, then use the drop-down lists under Process priorities to make the setting you want for that virtual machine.
There is no corresponding setting on a Linux host.
