How to properly mount your home folder in VMWare Fusion for doing development work

[Bob Sneidar]

I have an issue with Parallels and their folder sharing feature. I *think* they are using a kind of folder redirection. It takes forever to do anything in a Windows app in the VM. It runs much better on a real workstation, although I must say not as fast as on MacOS. Not sure why the engine is so much faster on MacOS.
