Andy,
I doubt that your problems are due to the license manager connection itself,
unless you do not have enough licenses and actually have to wait for a
license. The problem that I encountered using ION is that the web servers
are often old and usually by far not as fast as new desktop machines. Thus
it takes longer to generate plots, especially if intense calculations are
involved. After creation, these plots need to be transmitted over the
internet, which can take quite a bit of time, if the images are hi-res and
use plenty of colors (and you are on a dial-up). This also causes a slow
down. I do not see, how the VM can help you.

Greetings,
Haje
