But virt-manager can be a CPU hog depending on a few factors: - Whether the connection supports async events or not. Without it, virt-manager polls the object lists at regular intervals. - How much stats polling it is doing, can be configured in Preferences dialog - How often it is polling, can be configured in the preferences dialog There's also been a lot of improvements in this area since 1.0.1 - Cole _______________________________________________ virt-tools-list mailing list virt-tools-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/virt-tools-list
