NodeJS slow startup on vagrant

I'm running a windows machine and I've just setup a basic Trusty64 vagrant box.

Whenever I try to run a http app in node within vagrant (doing nothing but showing a blank webpage) it takes a few seconds to startup. This is annoying when using it with Nodemon because it means I need to wait a few seconds everytime I make a change.

If I try running the same code on my host machine the startup times will basically be instant.

Is there anything that can be done to speed this up?
