That’s pretty interesting. I haven’t seen that before, tbh, I had been using 
gridcentric for live migrations in grizzly, but that’s just because we didn’t 
have shared storage.
So, the instance is what is generating the load, right? anything interesting on 
the console log? I wonder if there is some time-sync issue that’s going haywire 
when it lands on the new host.
But now I’m just speculating.
