Hi everyone, I wanted to share some practical benchmark results from testing Delphi 12.3 under Parallels Desktop (Windows 11 ARM) on my new Mac Studio M4 Max. I'm working on a large ERP project (around 1 million lines of code) using components from Fast Report, TMS Software, and DevExpress. Here’s a direct comparison between three systems I’ve tested: Build config Intel i5-12500 (Win11, 32 GB) Mac Mini M4 Pro (24 GB) Mac Studio M4 Max (36 GB) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Win64 Clean + Build 32 sec 26 sec 24 sec Win64 Clean + Compile 21 sec 18 sec 17 sec Win32 Clean + Build 23 sec 19 sec 17 sec Win32 Clean + Compile 16 sec 14 sec 13 sec All tests were run in Parallels Desktop 19, with each Mac VM configured optimally (RAM and CPU cores adjusted per machine). The Intel system was running native Windows 11 Pro with 32 GB RAM. Windows 11 ARM inside Parallels ran Delphi 12.3 without any issues. Key impressions: Mac Studio M4 Max delivers excellent performance even under virtualization. Parallels Desktop is extremely stable — no issues with Firebird or IBExpert either. For large Delphi projects, it’s a very viable setup for professional development. Best regards, Bojan

Hello, I have resolved the issue. Our admin has set up restrictions preventing the copying of executable files (such as .bpl, .dll, and .exe) to the public folder under \users. Thank you! Best regards, Bojan

Hello, I have Delphi 11.2 Patch 1 installed. When I try to compile P4DComponentSuite get error: "[Fatal Error] Can't load package Python280.bpl. The system cannot find the file specified". I have paths (\source, \source\vcl, \source\fmx in library path and browsing path for both platforms (32-bit and 64 - bit). I have no ideas what else should I do. Any ideas? Regards, Bojan
