HUD enormously drains computer resources

[hgt1]

im playing 20 table stacked and when the HUD is up my computer dramatically slows down. playing from virtualbox with the following system:

- 64 MB video ram
- 1,2 GB RAM
- 1 core CPU
otherwise my setup is AMD64x2, 4GB RAM, 256MB video

didnt played from this computer for a while but on a different one i played also from virtualbox with a nearly same configuration, and more tables like 24-28 and it worked fine for a long time.
also it was fine on this one 2 months back when i used last time.
i think it connected to the update somehow?

the HUD even made vbox to freeze 2 times. when i turn it off everything just superfast.

i tried to make a smaller DB for hands, it didnt helped.

any thoughts would be very helpful how can i fix this? if its possible?

Out of curiosity... Are you running VB because your platform is Mac or Linux or something else ?

thanks.
the current platform was winxp, outside of virtualbox its just works perfectly fine and really fast. used to run VB under linux, in an another computer (very similar to this one), and it ran much better but not that well. inside vbox i emulated winxp in both configurations.
leaving vbox is the ultimate solution i think =(

so you run xp in vb on xp ?

yes for now since it was easier to move the db from a linux computer to here instead of reimport for almost a day.
