Not so fast. On a standalone workstation Windows 7 64bit 16gig memory and an 
SSD: 64 ticks. Compared with 14 ticks on my Mac OS X. My Parallels VM is 
outperforming a workstation. Oh, and the Windows workstation? It's the 
workstation running the mySQL instance!!!

That's exactly my point. It is decidedly NOT like-with-like, but it has nothing 
to do with virtualization. The Windows LC is running very much slower than the 
Mac OS, and I'm not blaming LC. It may be Windows itself. I disabled my 
Antivirus. Got it down to 57 ticks.
