On my Retina MacBook Pro with PD7 and Win8 I was getting a score between 110-115 FPS for Steam's Lost Coast video stress benchmark with highest settings at 1920x1200. After upgrading to PD8, the score went to 85-90 FPS, all same settings. I have the VM configured as 4 CPU, 4GB RAM, 1024 VRAM as before. That's about a 20% loss. Where's the 30% increase? I was really excited about that!
 
I am also expierencing performance drops. Basically on Guild Wars 2, which was running very nice under PD7, now i get lots of tearing while playing, i get 60 FPS, but every 10 seconds or so, it drops (hangs the game for half a second) to 0, then goes back to 60+

Damn, i do not really want to go thru the work again to get PD7 back on running . . .
