My FAH GPU client isn't getting the CPU time it needs, becuase my two Linux VMs are using most of it. I have noticed I'm losing up to 800PPD on certain work units as a result. Is there any way of cutting the CPU usage to about 95% on each VM, leaving 10% for the GPU and the system to run other apps?

Changing the priority of the processes doesn't help this.

Cheers.
 
Thanks for that, although when I open it up it doesn't list any 'System' process which are where the two 'vmware-vmx.exe' processes are that I want to control.

Could you explain how you set it up to work for you please :)
 
I'm using VMware server 2, I have fixed the problem by setting the GPU FAH client to use all fours cores and having it set to high.
