MAMP Forum • View topic - Slow after Lion upgrade
"*.local is the Bonjour search domain. So if you set up devsite.local and try to visit it, the OS is looking for another machine assigned to that name. Lion must be implementing this differently than Snow Leopard did, resulting in slow page loads while the OS determines where to look for a response."

Virtualised Development Environments on a Mac - Nefarious Designs
"The best solution would be to build linked clones. A linked clone is a copy of a virtual machine that shares virtual disks with the parent virtual machine in an ongoing manner. This conserves disk space, and allows multiple virtual machines to use the same software installation. It also means we’ll be able to run the two VMs simultaneously."
