Sažetak

In the last decade, virtualization technologies have become very popular. Virtualization enables a user to run multiple
operating systems on the same computer concurrently, while providing a degree of isolation between OS instances. Even though
virtualization is mostly used on servers, its popularity on desktop also rises, where it is mostly used in cross-platform development
and execution of software available to other platforms. Since both of these use cases are performance intensive, the goal of this paper
is to evaluate the performance of a couple of the most popular desktop virtualization tools on the market, i.e., VMWare Player and
Oracle VirtualBox. Benchmarks used in this paper evaluate the performance of the tools in both CPU intensive and GPU intensive
applications, with special emphasis placed on the performance of multi-threaded applications.
