Page Fusion causes VBoxService.exe to crash

[Perry G]

Host Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit <--> Guest Windows 7 Pro 64-bit (3.2.8 GAs installed)

Turning Page Fusion on and starting Windows 7, after a minute or so will cause the VBoxService to crash and things really slow down after that. I can eventually get it to shut down but it takes some patience. With Page Fusion off I do not have this problem. I am posting the screen shot and a log file with Page Fusion on and one with page fusion off.

Let me know what else you need.

Works fine here. Is this a virgin win7 x64 install?

No VBoxService process is left in the task manager? (there should be two)

Pretty much a virgin install. It crashed on version 3.2.4 and Frank told me to turn off Page Fusion. But the damage had already been done and I had to delete and reinstall Win-7. Only thing that is not original is the Realtek audio drivers to get the sound to work and Microsoft Security Essentials. I only use this VM for VBox upgrade testing, and aside from making sure that it is up-to-date I don't use it.

Screen shot attached showing the task manager and warning flags. The warning only happens when I turn on Page Fusion usually after a minute after it starts.

The next maintenance release will contain fixes for page fusion. I could post some test builds if someone is interested in testing.
