Code Virtualizer converts the original x86 opcodes into complex virtual opcodes which are emulated in runtime by a unique Virtual Machine. If you protect a routine which is executed many times per second or there are many iteration loops (FOR, WHILE, etc.), your application will run slower. Please insert Code Virtualizer in routines of your application that are not executed many times per second if you want to keep the original application performance.
