Howdy,

I'm running openSUSE 10.3 (2.6.22.13-0.3-bigsmp) and when I recently
upgraded to 1.5.4, I noticed _after_ the first boot, my VM consumes
50-75% of System time.  If I pass `nohz=off' to the kernel, the
problem goes way (usage down to 5-6%).

I just installed 1.5.2 to confirm that I don't see the same issue
after the second boot _and_ without needing `nohz=off'  Interesting
enough, System usage is lower in 1.5.2 during idle than 1.5.4:  1-3%

The big problem I have is when I use `nohz=off', I can no longer
suspend-to-disk.

Here are the two RPM's:

   o VirtualBox-1.5.2_25433_openSUSE103-1.i586.rpm
   o VirtualBox-1.5.4_27034_openSUSE103-1.i586.rpm

Anyone seeing similar?  I want to ensure I'm not doing anything
boneheaded before I open a bug.

Cheers,
