I recently upgraded to the new port version of virtualbox - 3.2.6. After completing the upgrade, I'm seeing a massive amount of wcpu consumption (145%) with virtualbox when I use the vm to rdp to a different windows box. As long as I'm not using rdp, it works fine. When I first start the rdp, wcpu is fine, but it increases over time (20-30 minutes) until it's consuming cpu to the point where the host becomes very sluggish. Has anyone else experienced this? I have run into this problem too. Not sure what the cause is, but it does get out of hand very quickly on my machine. The only work-around I've found is to use "cpulimit" to throttle back the VirtualBox process. The side effect of this, of course, is everything in the VM runs very slowly. But it's the only thing I've found to avoid cooking my laptop. _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
