I use the Nessus Applicance with the Professional Feed running in VirtualBox on top of a BackTrack 4 install. I scan a Class C on a Dual Core laptop with about 3GB Ram and I can't say I notice any performance issues.

Can you tell me what the limitations are. The three computers I will be running Nesuss in a VM all have Quad Core CPU with at least 8 GB of RAM. So there should not be an issue of hard that could support Nessus if installed directly on the system.
