I have a similar setup as you, dominikos: VMWare Fusion on a MBP w/ 750GB SSD and 16GB of RAM also with IB and eSignal running in the background (which don't take a whole heck of a lot of CPU). Chart loading is always going to be gated by CPU for the most part and particularly if you have a lot of data or longer charts (intraday especially) there's no getting around this. Wine is not going to improve anything as you're not gated by syscalls or other windows functions as the main limiter. At the point SC is computing charts it's 100% usercode within SC which should be within 95% of a native Windows environment regardless of VMWare, Parallels, or Wine.
