Is vpp_main CPU 100% normal?

JBelthoff

I finally got TNSR working on both VM Workstation and a ESXI host. However in both circumstances a single thread for vpp_main remains pegged at 100%.

Is this normal behavior or did I miss configure something? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
