5214,VirtualBox 3.0.8 WindowsXP guest aborts (crashes) on OS X 10.6.1 host,BavarianGuy,,"The WindowsXP VM runs for about 20 minutes and suddenly aborts.

The memory and virtual memory of the VM process rises up to [[BR]]
1.1 GB and 3.15 GB, although the VM is configured for 512 MB. [[BR]]
This happens after 20 minutes when I start applications in the VM.

Unfortunately, I can repeat this process all day long[[BR]]
(especially running VS 2005 in the VM leads to the memory consumption of the VM process).

It does not matter if VT-X / Nested Paging / PAE is turned on or off.[[BR]]
3D acceleration is not enabled.


The WindowsXP VM was stable until the recent upgrade:

Leopard -> Snow Leopard[[BR]]
VirtualBox 2.x -> 3.0.6 -> 3.0.8
