Yes, real hardware! It's the GUI! Explorer! I can run ROS for one week in cmd only mode, compile and so on! But, when in the GUI, it slows down! So slow you can watch the char's type across the cmd window.
It good to see others haven the same problem I've been writing about for months now! James
I'm pretty sure my problem is not the same. I don't boot into GUI and I let ReactOS be idle for a while and the VMware monitor still use all CPU time. With Linux it does the same until a few seconds after leaving GRUB. Then CPU usage varies until Linux is idle and yhen CPU usage is almost zero. I suspect maybe it is due to Linux utilizing power management and VMware recognizes it or something like that.
