Hello
I have a long-term problem with loading of packages. Compilation takes very
long time on my Windows PCs. On desktop it takes "only" double amount of
time in comparison with linux, but on notebook, it is more than 10 times
slower. Desktop has Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit and notebook PC with Windows 7
Home Premium 64-bit, both have somehow similar specs (4-6 years old
dual-core processors on 2,9 and 2,4 GHz), similar software, both have
magnetic HDDs. I believe it used to take very long time on my notebook too,
but I tried opening Pharo there again and it was somehow OK, but I'm not
aware of any major change which could have caused it ... I mean... a lot
changes on my PCs, but I can't remember anything which could directly affect
it.
Following "benchmarks" are both on same (copy paste) of VM - Windows VM 453
from 2015-06-18. Both on clean image 50141. All tested in as much as similar
conditions as possible with everything else (possible) turned off. However,
it used to be slow like that for a long time on multiple previous VMs and
images since I can even remember (which is about a year).

I tried turning off antivirus, turning off file indexing, praying to
multiple gods, but with no success.
I will appreciate any help.
