The machines are dual core, there is no reason that opening a browser should shoot it up to 99% and make it as slow as it does, and if I open like 4 instances of browsers and leave them open it'll just stay around 80-99% if each one is on a website with some graphic or gif on it.Īt first I thought perhaps the issue may be with the fact that I have Ryzen, but I'm not sure (I guess there is no optimization yet right?). Anything that even slightly uses the CPU seems to be using it at 10x the rate that it should be using. If I open a video or anything it will be 99% CPU usage until the video is gone.

It will drop down to 30-50% afterwards but even that is very high considering it's just sitting idle, no? I can open just one instance of Firefox & one instance of Chrome and the CPU usage will shoot up to 99%. The problem I have is with the CPU usage being very high with barely anything open. I have created 6x VirtualBox guests with Windows 10 and assigned 2.5GB Ram and 2 cores to each.

I have a machine with a Ryzen 1700X CPU and 32GB Ram with a 1TB SSD.
