Slow Shutdown on a Mac Pro

After running vmware fusion on my mac pro, If I try and restart or shutdown the machine it takes between 15 and 30 minutes to shutdown. If I haven't run fusion at all it takes 20 seconds. There is nothing in the system.log which gives a clue to what could be happening.

Mac Pro Running Leopard 10.5.6 with all updates applied (Dual 2.8G Xeon,16G Ram, 640G Boot Drive and 1.2T Raid 5 )

Vmware Fusion 2.03.

When you shutdown the Mac after using Fusion, is there a difference if Fusion is shut down first? Or if the virtual machines are set to suspended or powered off state first?
Does it still take that long if you shut down manually the guest operating systems first?
