VMWare Pentest lab: Extremely high CPU on host
-
Try the 4.1 instead.
It could be interesting to see if its a 5.x issue.
-
I was on 4.1, I just went to 5.1 :)
Its not as bad with 5.1 and 5.1 seems to manage the cpus much better all machines are using less but it is still unusable :(
-
Hmmmm that is pretty weird!!
-
Eurika, I think I may have fixed it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just doing some testing now ;D
-
It would appear that I have resolved this in my situation anyway.
It turned out to be the physical nic setting in vmware was set to 100meg full duplex.
I changed this to auto negotiate and it still negotiates to 100meg full deplux but the problem totally goes away!!
If I switch it back to specifying 100meg full duplex I get the problem again so it is defiantly that setting.
Thanks for the help Supermule
So if anyone is having similar issues check this setting!
