I just installed XP into a new VM, specifying -smp 2 for the machine. According to top, it's using nearly 200% of a cpu even when I'm not doing anything. Is this real CPU useage, or just a reporting problem (just as my disk image is big according to ls, but isn't really)? If it's real, is there anything I can do about it? kvm 0.7.2 on Debian Lenny (but 2.6.29 kernel), amd64. Xeon chips; 32 bit version of XP pro installed, now fully patched (including the Windows Genuine Advantage stuff, though I cancelled it when it wanted to run). Task manager in XP shows virtually no CPU useage. Please cc me on responses. Thanks for any assistance. -- Ross Boylan wk: (415) 514-8146 185 Berry St #5700 ross@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Dept of Epidemiology and Biostatistics fax: (415) 514-8150 University of California, San Francisco San Francisco, CA 94107-1739 hm: (415) 550-1062 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
