Description
Host: Ubuntu 9.04 Guest: Windows XP & 7
CPU usage on both host and guest are minimal with no programs open. When firefox is launched, and a Javascript intensive page is opened (ex. gmail), one core on the host shows 100% utilization, while the guest remains minimal. Usage returns to normal when Firefox is closed.
The workaround is to open a secondary VM and run it idly along with the guest.
