Hi Jason, Nopes, I checked mulitple times and all I can say is that as soon as I connect the pfSense machine's NIC with my public-cum-mgmt port group on the dvSwitch, CPU of any of the host(s) in the cluster shoots to 60-70% from the normal 4-5%. I have very consolidation ratio as of now, only 2-6 VMs per host. As soon the NIC is disconnected, the CPU consumption drops vertically and it is fairly visible and noticable.
