Ted, Running on the server itself or on terminals using the server with VFP tables?
We have 8 x 2012 VM's running on one physical server using HyperV and 4 of them run VFP apps either locally or on Win 7 64bit clients with no problems at all.
Check if the VM's are Dynamically allocated or are they pre-partitioned and allocated. When VFP is extending tables in a Dynamic VM it tends to work a LOT slower. We made sure all our VM's were allocated at creation time as contiguous data areas.

A former client from way back when emailed me with a brief question on
"running VFP 9 on a server with HyperV and Windows Server 2012R2." They are migrating an existing app from Server 2003 and he says on the new machine, "it runs like a dog" and I'm guessing he doesn't mean greyhound.
With this lack of clues, has anyone got a shot-in-the-dark guess what might be going wrong?
