So, I'm having a high CPU utilization problem. My XP Pro guest is
running at ~50% CPU at idle on my Ubuntu 9.04 host.
I found one bizarre solution to this, which is: Create another guest
(without an OS - hell, without a disk seems to work too) and boot it.
Leave the guest on the "FATAL: No bootable medium found!" screen.
VirtualBox's idle CPU utilization goes to <10%. Close the "fake" guest
and CPU util pops back up to 50%. I got the idea from some website which
I can't seem to find anymore.
I was wondering if there's perhaps a cleaner solution to this? I've
tried changing the proc affinity via taskset, but that had no effect.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Greg
