[ WORK-AROUND ] Java + VirtualBox + win XP guest (javaw.exe 100% CPU)
« on: January 30, 2012, 09:19:11 AM »
Just stumbled across this nasty bug:

when executing java on a VBox guest WinXP, a process javaw.exe is eating 100% of the CPU.
Although the bug has been already reported in the past, it's still open for virtualbox 4.1.8, fortunately there is a workaround:

Thanks.

We'll see how that work-around works... ;D

EDIT:
correct "say" to "see".
