Hi; First let me thank all the developers for their efforts with VBox.
I've installed the recently announced 3.2.0 stable release but I see that, after installing its companion guest additions on a Win XP SP3 guest, VBoxService.exe hits 99% of CPU usage all the time!. I doesn't even go down to 97 or 98. It stays fixed at 99% on the performance monitor. After about 15 minutes of the VM on (without doing anything on it), VBox aborts the machine. The host also suffers with this. With the earlier GA (BETA1) and an idle VM, Host CPU hovers around 8% (11% peaks). With the new GA and idle VM, it sticks to 37% (40% peaks) CPU usage. The same thing happened with VBoxGuestAdditions_3.2.0_BETA2/3 but NOT with VBoxGuestAdditions_3.2.0_BETA1 or any earlier GA!, with BETA1, VBox works perfectly, so I reverted back to it until this issue is cleared. System: FBSD 8-STABLE (updated weekly) amd64 Any suggestions? Thanks, -- Mario Lobo http://www.mallavoodoo.com.br FreeBSD since version 2.2.8 [not Pro-Audio.... YET!!] (99,7% winfoes FREE) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ VBox-users-community mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/vbox-users-community
