- 39. Possible issues Disk IO can be slow as the number of files grow due to VirtualBox issues. Use NFS in these situations. Memory usage can get tight as number and size of VMs grow. Buy more memory... Not really designed for performance testing Copyright 2012 Element 84, LLC
- 40. Tips Don’t forget to exclude .vagrant directory from CM Use real provisioning (e.g. Puppet, Chef, etc.) Seriously. Spend the time. Don’t cheat. Consider building a set of project specific boxes and using those instead of having everyone reprovision from base box. Vagrant has great Rake integration - consider using this for any repetitive tasks that have to be done inside the VM. Copyright 2012 Element 84, LLC

- This is no fun. We don’t want to develop in a VM using vim....\n
- We want access to our native environment\n

- Vagrant is technically a gem but as of v1.0 (March 2012) there are packages for OSX, Windows, Ubuntu, Debian, Redhat, etc.\n
