This paper presents the results of performance comparison for three different virtualization software, Oracle VM VirtualBox, VMware Player and Microsoft Virtual PC 2007, in Windows 7 operation system environment. All the testing procedures are performed in the same hardware environment and on the same disc partition. We have applied NTFS file system, while Windows 7 is used as host and guest operational systems. Postmark is benchmark application created for the needs of file system performance measurement, and easily used for testing systems and virtualization applications performances based on the different file size.
