I'm trying to set up Hyper-V 2012 R2 to run a VM realtime.  I've set up a dedicated 2012 R2 machine freshly installed with nothing but Hyper-V added, and the VM's I've set up in Hyper-V have unacceptable latencies.  I'm trying to vitrualize a 10 year old intel atom bare metal gateway with 1Gb RAM  onto a 2 year old quad xeon on SSDs with 32Gb RAM and I can't because the VM's latencies are to high at times and breaks the datastream. 

How do I deploy Hyper-V in an instance where latencies are critical? What box do I have to check to make Hyper-V stop going all Walter Mitty with it?

1. Make sure that your guest operating system is supported and integration tools are installed - https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn792027.aspx

Hi

What is the OS of the guest? Can the hardware satisfy the needs of the OS?

We may check the performance of the guest OS to see if it needs more hardware resources. Use Task Manager or Performance Monitor to check the usage of CPU, RAM.

Best Regards,
