> Anybody know what the deal is with neither Oracle nor Microsoft trying to make it possible for VirtualBox and WSL2 to coexist without severe performance impact? What the heck is the issue that neither side knows how to solve? Or is there a deliberate business decision not to solve it?

Oh I thought your parrent post was asking general overview on why Virtualbox will have severe performance impact if WSL2 is activated. I posted the reason due to multiple abstraction conflicting with each other and there you go.

AFAIK it's already possible but still experimental on Virtualbox, also it's hard issue to solve, and have tiny ROI I suppose. And why would they spent time fixing this slowness that only impact some small userbase like you?

It seems like you're just making guesses and don't actually know the answer? The reason I asked wasn't that I couldn't make the same guesses; it was that I had read online that there are technical obstacles here that (for reasons I don't understand, hence the question) they've had a hard time overcoming. i.e. "tiny RoI" or "small userbase" don't fully explain what I've read.

I was hoping someone would actually know the answer, not just make guesses I could have made myself.
