    Hello,

    I have 2 Macs. Both run Parallels Desktop. Now I have a Windows application that needs to run on both Parallels Desktops and they have to share their databases.

    This is what I did:
    1. Cop my Windows application and its data on a folder on 1 Mac
    2. Share this Mac folder
    3. In Parallels Desktop, share this Mac folder so its visible for Windows
    4. Run the Windows app from that shared folder.

    This works OK and fast on the Mac where the folder is LOCALY saved, but VERY slow on the Mac where the folder is shared.

    How can we speed this up?

    Thanks!

    Patrick
