[QUOTE="Zoolook, post: 401296, member: 21101"] When you pause or suspend Parallels and then shut down the app, you'll notice Parallels is spinning in your dock for about 30 seconds whilst it writes the contents of RAM in Windows as well as the page file, to your HDD to recover at a later date. When restarting, the entire contents of windows has to be reloaded from the HDD back to RAM, which is the delay you experience. This would include any open apps, all running processes, memory that had been cached etc. If you hibernate a real windows machine before powering down, you'll experience the same lag. [/QUOTE]
