Hi,
Glad to hear that Vimalin is just what you are looking for.
At the moment I'm not sure what you can do to speed up certutil. The utility not using all your available cores is both a blessing and a curse.
It's a blessing because running a backup won't impact your workflow much when using the VM.
It's a curse because you have more CPU capacity available, but the utility isn't using it.
Replacing certutil with another utility might be a workaround, but the problem is which utility to use.
As certutil comes with the OS it has my preference, it also is a utility I trust to work well with files over 2GB in size.
Another option would be to disable the md5 hashing, but that reduces the reliability as Vimalin won't be able to guarantee that the backup is correct.
For the moment you cannot disable this step.
