Hello All I recently started noticing that despite limiting my Fedora VM (running docker for my reverse proxy)  I have have the threads reserved for it on my i7 7700K leaving the other 1/2 to unraid, docker etc...

The issue is when ever an CPU intensive process runs inside the Fedora VM (pinned to 2 cores for 4 Threads) it pins all 4 cores/8 threads of my CPU 

attached are diagnostics while Deluge a Torrent file check on a 147GB file was being done as well as a screenshot of top and the Dashboard

'top' doesnt show any cpu usage that matches the total usage the GUI dashboard does. Am I reading it wrong or is the dashboard reporting incorrectly

to lay it out the CPU cores/HT's i have are 

CPU 0/ HT 4
CPU 1/ HT 5
CPU 2/ HT 6
CPU 3/HT 7

Fedora is pinned to CPU 2/HT 6 and CPU 3/ HT7

thanks for any insight to this odd issue

I'm having a similar issue. Now that you mention it, the issue with the cores does appear to happen when the VM is being pinged hard at 100% with some task. Here is what I'm experiencing. 

Looking into this being looked into as well.

Look at the "load average" given by 'top': 13.96 15.22 13.92

This indicates you are stretching your system and the GUI reflects that.

 

hmmm interesting how is that being allowed with the CPU cores assigned to the VM?

i had similar issue, i reinstalled windows and it went away, 

 

but it's happening again...

 

Process say it's the VM using the resources, but in windows it's idling. 

i am guessing it has something to do with network. 

by network, i mean between windows vm and unraid.
