10 years ago, on the exact same hardware, running a Rails application test suite in a Linux VM through VirtualBox was nearly 2x faster than running natively on the Windows side of things. This must be a combination of things, namely Ruby on Windows was super slow back then, but the filesystem impacted things as well.
