   No complain, just letting you know about my experience.   
       
   Currently I am running DB on a Windows 7 32bit HyperV VM and since I moved to   
   a new apartment my "server" is in the living room so I try to reduce the   
   number of VMs running to keep the CPU cool and the fan silent.   
   So... 2 DCs, 1 IIS server, a couple of other VMs removed....still no joy   
       
   Why? Because of the NTVDM process on the fido VM..... More that 50% of the   
   virtual cpu for DB.   
   So I tried Windows 10 and vDOS.... Running fine but...50% CPU load again...   
   and I went back to Win 7 32bit...   
       
   Did you check the ntvdmx64 cpu consumption by any chance?
