How many resources have you allocated to the virtual machine?

I have the same problem but no idea why that's happening, my QEMU/KVM Windows 10 VM is really slow compared to a Windows 10 VirtualBox VM, the problem is that VirtualBox is using X11 and I have flickering and scaling issues with it

I didnt face any issue with virtualbox. just I found it slow, so I installed qemu, which I think is even slower

I am using linux lts kernel if that has anything to do with it
