As far as I can understand the mentioned improvement is targeted on a polling mode for a MSSQL, there is no wonder for observing relatively high hypervisor CPU consumption without any sign of same consumption in a guest itself. Certain kinds of applications (PBXes, Chrome/Chromium, seemingly MSSQL) may poll some resource very frequently, causing wakeups in the host for guest process and increasing overall running time of a guest process. I`ve heard of none of the mitigations for this class of workload issues, though you can experiment with guest timer settings if you want to. As we are talking in the libvir-list, it is safe to suggest to use native HyperV host to eliminate this problem completely. :) _______________________________________________ libvirt-users mailing list libvirt-users@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvirt-users
