Hello, forum users!

 

;) After installing Parallels 5582 or 5570 comes that, and I even didn't run the app.(?). Does anyone know what could be the reason of such CPU activity?

The most of CPU power is used by "kernel_task"

 

Thanks a lot. people!

Guys, i've solved this installing VMware, and it's funny, cause i have a Pentium D too, so, probaly our problem is the cpu, maybe Paralells in Leopard don't use the Pentium D "cores" in the right way...

Maybe you'll ask parallels support?

changing to vmware is right. searching more intense, i found that the vmmain.kext making the trouble. unloading solve the 2-3 second cpu loading problem. but then you can't run parallel. the best way.... unfortunately, goto vmware. work really good.

 

one thing that puzzle me though. using geekbench, i got around 1800 with leopard. using parallel with xp i got 1100. here is the cool part. using vmware with xp i got around 2500. go figure. :()
