That feeling when..

You are given a machine with SSD but your development environment runs in a slow VM beacuse of policies....
Zen and the art of software maintenance : rm -rf * Maths is like love : a simple idea but it can get complicated.
slow VM? these days most run close to native - (they pretty much do run native apart from some dev I/O). Is yours some sort of [other-than-host] CPU emulator?
after many otherwise intelligent sounding suggestions that achieved nothing the nice folks at Technet said the only solution was to low level format my hard disk then reinstall my signature. Sadly, this still didn't fix the issue!

VM sits somewhere else not on the same machine.

I do hope you're not complaining about cloud computing! It's The Way of the Future! ... Sluggish and unresponsive. Couch-potato computing.
I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!

If it is Hyper-V then a lot can be done by fine-tuning the number of virtual processors and memory. But I also experienced a hardware problem on a server that throttled network performance, it was only solved after replacing the server, now everything runs twice as fast.

replaced a whole server for the sake of a virtual machine? wouldn't buying a PC be a cheaper option? yeah I know.... just being literal

Not one virtual machine but several, some thought it would be a good idea to build our own server from "top notch" components, sadly these did not work together well. A lot of time was spent to find the cause and they even replaced the big hard disks with expensive SSD's, to no avail. So after much whining and head banging they finally bought a standard server and hey presto, twice the performance :-\
