a workaround is just disable 3D graphics for the VM's and start them 
headless with the VNC option and avoid the normal GUI but after so many 
years using VMware under KDE (as well as ESXi for production servers) it 
leaves a bad taste in my mouth to say it polite

and the fact that copy files over sftp freezes half of the GUI and i 
recently smoked two cigarettes until something starts to working again 
on a i7 SandyBrdige machine with 16 GB ram while switch with CTRL+ALT+F2 
to a console and verify that all the files are already there while 
plasma is running in circles with high CPU load confirms that until now 
KDE5 is just unusable
