I have a laptop with a 1.7Ghz Centrino and 2GB of RAM running bare bones XP. I was able to bring up the entire IE Lab (14 devices) on 2 Dynamips instances but obviously it runs like molasses going uphill in January. The CPU stays pegged at 100% and there is still about 125MB of RAM free. I can run a browser and wordpad on the laptop without much pain, but when I telnet to the routers (from another laptop) it is unusable. I do connect but just painfully slow.
Any performance tuning ideas? I would like to keep the environment on the laptop because as a consultant I travel a lot. It's nice to have your lab portable.
Thanks for the advice.
Patrick
