For me it is unfortunately not possible to run linux on my pc's because they must run 24/7 on win64. It would be really great if somebody  could compile a x64 wallet!
You can run linux on virtual machine (Oracle VirtualBox)


You're quoting the wrong person, I did not post that. I have tried VB but it doesn't perform as good as WSL or native Linux.

Yes indeed! I wrote that: "For me it is unfortunately not possible to run linux on my pc's because they must run 24/7 on win64. It would be really great if somebody  could compile a x64 wallet!"  Smiley
Good to know that the VB doesn`t perform that good. Do you have any comparison numbers, eventually in percentage, about the performance differences between 32bit windows wallet, 64bit in VB and 64bit in native linux? 
I am asking that because with a fulltime job, an extra big project, a small mining farm and two small kids and a wife at home it would be pretty frustrating  to invest time to install linux in the VB and the find out that there is almost no performance gain...


Don't want to appear too rude, but if you haven't time to install Linux in a VB (takes 30-60 mins), then i'm guessing you've not really time to be a miner...
Anyways you've got your figures now, if that increase isn't worth it, i don't know what is...


I've tried that myself but VB does not use all resources eventhough performance is better and it used to crash from time to time, I'd say WSL is the best bet.
