In this video, I will be looking over 3 virtualization software solutions available for the Apple Silicon Macs, and comparing them in terms of performance, ease of use, and cost.
Original title: The State of Virtualization on Apple Silicon M1
The 3 softwares tested are UTM, Parallels Desktop, and VMware Fusion Player. For the testing, I used a base model M1 MacBook Air (8GB RAM, 7-core GPU). Windows 11 (ARM64) (upgraded from Windows 10 on ARM) was used in Parallels Desktop only due to time constraints and software limitations. Alpine Linux was used as a benchmark on all 3 softwares.
UTM: mac.getutm.app/
Parallels Desktop: www.parallels.com/
VMware Fusion Player: customerconnect.vmware.com/we... for the license. For the technical preview: customerconnect.vmware.com/do...
Big thanks to my friend chrismin13 for the camera work!

An extra nerdy note: The M1 supports operating systems with page sizes of either 4KB or 16KB. While most arm64 operating systems will work just fine in a virtual machine, OSes with page sizes other than 4K or 16K will not boot. One notable example is Red Hat Enterprise Linux, which on arm64 has a 64KB page size, and subsequently CentOS for the same reason. This might be fixed in the next update of RHEL to achieve compatibility with M1. EDIT: According to AwlsomeAlex in the replies below, RHEL9 is compiled with a 4KB kernel and works on Parallels now. Thanks, Alex!

@KalosLikesComputers
@KalosLikesComputers 2 роки тому
Android is an issue we have yet to overcome, really. Despite being built for arm64, there is no reliable way to run Android apps. You'd think it'd be made by now. I don't know why it's so difficult... In Windows 11 running through Parallels you can't run Android apps because that's a layer 2 virtual machine, and on macOS there's an Android emulator that Android Studio installs, but it's pretty slow. In a few years, when my low-level programming skills are better, I might try to make an Android virtualizer myself...?

As a bona fide technologist, troubleshooter who has worked with virtual machines since the late 1990s, this video was very well done. I knew you would end up reaching the same conclusion I did in playing with the alternatives: there aren’t any. It’s really just parallels desktop. Which is OK because it’s a fantastic product. Now, virtual box is in beta form to support the M1 processor. I will be taking a look at that myself as well.

@reneesquivel6449 8 місяців тому
@@moonleter6637UTM is very good. I have to say it makes more sense on the Apple silicon than Parallels because it performs very well with good OS support and requires no subscription. I would pay the $10 to install via the App Store as that way it supports auto updates. I have installed Windows 11 via UTM - it performs great in a non-business setting. As for trying to use it on my 2021 MBP M1 in the field, no way. My nosey clients remote through my laptop and jack with my network settings. Once they see a “virtual machine”, they would throw a tantrum that would blow back on me. I have a video showing my solution to have Native windows concurrently with Apple Silicon here: ukposts.info/have/v-deo/f3SpipuibqGBq2Q.html I use this solution in the field almost daily, and it works great.

Your channel is gonna go far! 😄 I really hope that with the upcoming WWDC, Apple changes and encourages (long-shot but worth a try) the developers to build tools for their ARM platform. I get the feeling that there's a lot of catching up to do and lots of research and development to tap into that ARM power on the Mac and I wonder if this catch up strategy that Apple constantly does is actually good for software. I hope it gets better so that you can actually use one machine for all your needs.

I'm a specific use case where I like to use a Mac for work, but there are 2 of my own company's proprietary Windows apps that I need to access in order to do product demos.

Great video but don't be so quick to dismiss UTM/QEMU in favor of Parallels. They are for different purposes. Many including me, need to do Linux/x86 development on their Apple Silicon Macs and parallels not doing emulation makes that a no go directly. I use QEMU from the command line and sure, it's a bit slow, but can be sped up some with forced multithreading with the risk of some instability. Docker also works great out of the box for Linux/x86 development. Canonical's Multipass is also an option for virtualization but as of writing this they don't yet support emulation but are planning to add it. Many developers also don't care about graphics or GUIs, we SSH into the VMs and work 100% from the command line. For this QEMU excels and has everything we need :)

Android is actually quite different - Android Studio installs an Android emulator that does work but is very slow. QEMU might be able to run Android. UTM had a pre-build Android VM in their library but they removed it at some point. Here's the statement: "We removed the Android pre-built images because Android does not run well on QEMU/UTM and created a lot of confusion. Advanced users can build their own Android VM from scratch but it is not recommended."

If you mean that you tried running Android apps through a Windows 11 ARM virtual machine on an M1 Mac, it relates to the issue I talk about at 1:44. Windows 11 runs Android apps through the Windows Subsystem for Android, which is essentially a stripped down Hyper-V virtual machine. This cannot run on M1, because it would be a Layer 2 virtual machine.

I am a software engineer that deals mostly with macOS. Using VM’s particularly macOS VM’s is fairly critical to my work flow. I have found Running Guest VM’s to be total garbage on Apple Silicon. Parallels is the best tool, and was quite impressive on x86 Macs but on ARM64 Macs its really garbage and the support absolutely sucks. I have a few Apple Silicon macs for testing, but I am still using an Intel Mac as my daily driver. At this point if an application is not available for Apple Silicon like in VMWares case, I dont expect one to ever be available. Personally I blame apple for making the hurdles too high. Which is causing application manufacturers to weigh effort/cost to get it working against the small user base of macOS and how much revenue they will receive.

@@KalosLikesComputers Agreed, we will get there. In the meantime if VMs are a critical part of someones workflow they really should stick to Intel Macs for now.

@@andrewgrant788 Problem is, there are no intel macs to buy any longer besides the Mac Pro... We have customers running mini's and older macpros (the trash cans) with vCenter and we have a problem - if the hosts dies we need to drop the entire platform. They have software relying on old intel mac platforms. But this is probably a problem so small as to be ignored totaly, who in their right mind runs mac as server and as v-hosts at that...

@@jmkhenka The Intel Mac mini is also available new and 27" iMacs are available on the refurb store. One use case for Mac Servers is CI build machines for automated testing. With Mac vHosts you can legally host MacOS. The main use case for running VMs on a Mac though are locally hosted software development and access to software that either doesn't run on MacOS or requires an older version of MacOS. I have a Mojave VM image to run old 32bit MacOS software. I also have multiple Linux VMs and Docker.

what a great vid on virtualization. i went thru most of this myself, and as a PD user on macs since day 1, it does seem to be the only way to run windows on my M1 mini. And yes, the pricing is the worst feature - outrageous! 🇺🇦Slava Ukraini🌻

One thing that always pops out to me when trying to make these things work in a usable way is something you say a lot about VMware Fusion. "I just couldn't be bothered to fix the error" when performance is terrible. Thanks for putting this together.
@KalosLikesComputers
@KalosLikesComputers Рік тому
I'm usually the type to always try my hardest to fix any error that comes up, it gives me a very primal sense of satisfaction when I make a computer work properly. But when it comes to the average user, I want to be honest with them, and I want to show them that this needs tinkering to get it to work - I'm not going to overstate its ease of use just because I got it to work.
