VirtualBox's known for poor 3D performance, even with the Guest Additions. If you want better graphics performance, use Hyper-V.

VB is slow anyway. 
In contrast, my VirtualBox is running on Windows 7. host is Windows 7. guest is Windows 11.
I wish VirtualBox could be more powerful. it runs much weaker than physical computer. anyway, its' better than nothing.
several apps on my computer (HP 800 G5 SFF i5-9600) request modern Chromium and Java v17 or higher (Java LTS, long term support), which are supported only on Windows 11 OS.
my computer has changed to Windows 7/11 dual-boot awhile to fit this requirement.
after several months test, it's concluded that running time of those apps on Windows 11 is much longer than the time on Windows 7. about 2X-3X longer.
this slows down my daily work significantly.
therefore I have let the Windows 7 OS host VBox, in where runs those apps on Windows 11, meanwhile leave all other tasks to run on Windows 7.
that's much more complex than my previous simple Windows 7 settings (having been running about ten years). but better than nothing. at least, the computer finishes all tasks on time. no delay or stop.
