Re: Nessus Virtual Appliance

Darnit, didn't you guys say just a couple of years ago that Nessus was  
NEVER to be run on VMware virtual machines, because it's so horribly  
slow when you do that?  What changed?  Was it VMware that suddenly got  
10 times more efficient, or was it Nessus?

Or are you banking on the much faster hardware that exists today to do  
the trick?

Or does it run dedicated on that nifty VMware/OS?
