On a laptop?  Under VMWare?  

I have used MSSQL Server too, and find PostgreSQL to compare favorably
in most cases.  You may have found a case where it does not.  I have
found PostgreSQL to work fine out of the box in most cases, with the
main 'obscure knob' that needs to be twiddled being sort_mem (or
work_mem for 8.0 and up.)

If you give specifics of your database structure and migration
functions I am sure someone on the list will be able to help you get
reasonable performance.
