The problem isn't anything in your vmware configuration.
Plan 9 just runs slowly under vmware, and I haven't tracked
down all the reasons, although I did find one of them (we
use RDMSR 0x10 instead of RDTSC to read the time stamp
counter, and under vmware the former is virtualized while
the latter can just go through to the processor).
