Don't give a VM more CPU's than it really *needs*. In so doing, you're actually slowing things down - which might be your problem here.
When you give a VM more than 1 CPU, VMWare has to wait for BOTH CPU's on the host to become free before it can execute. If you only have one, it just uses the first available to execute on.
So don't use SMP unless you really know you need it, and you understand the limitations in a virtual environment...
