    How is the performance now with x86 VMs on Apple Silicon?

    I'm once again thinking of moving my Parallels license from my old x86 MacBook Pro to my current Apple Silicon based one. The two things that have prevented it in the past is my need to test whether our application installs/runs in x86-based OSs (Ubuntu, Fedora, Windows 10/11 to be specific)...

    Battery consumption

    I'm using one WIN 11 instance on my M4 Pro and I noticed working on it in fullscreen and almost exclusively on a given day, that it's heavily draining the battery, basically cuts the charge in half. Is this a know issue or to be expected? Would love to get your comments.

    Add FreeBSD as an option in the list of manual create VM

    When selecting a list of manually creating a VM from an ISO, could you add FreeBSD as an option in that list rather than having to select "Other Linux"? One item in the config that needs to be adjusted behind the scenes in the default config upon creation is to use the Parallels Video file...

After digging through docs you need to edit the config.pvs manually and adjust VirtIO...

    Start using Emulator is not showing

    The release notes for Parallels Desktop 20 for Mac 20.2.0 (55872) have an attached kb for an experimental feature to run Intel VMS under Roesetta2.

    CPU Allocation on Apple Silicon

    I have left my Windows 11 instance to handle its own CPU allocations. My question is whether those CPUs are Efficiency cores, Performance cores, or a mix of the two? Obviously if they're only Performance cores, then it will take a hit on your battery life and if they're only Efficiency cores...

    DirectX 12 Game(s) that work in Parallels 20

    This is a shock to me. On a whim I downloaded Alone in the Dark (2024) which requires DirectX 12. The game is slower loading than on my Steam Deck (likely in part because the Steam Deck downloads a lot of the precompiled shaders when you install games) but the game does work! I haven't tried...
