Windows 10 vm bhyve 100% cpu

[photograaf16]

dear,

I use freenas for a couple months now...
I have a couple jails/plugins installed on it but cant get a desend Windows 10 virtual machine on it!

Even on a fresh install the cpu usage IN WINDOWS is 100% but the freenas dashboard show only 14% in use!
I really tried as many solution i could find on google, i need a windows virtual machine for cctv (blueiris).

I hope i give enought information:

SEVER INFORMATION:
Dell R410 server
32gb ram
2x Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU L5630 @ 2.13GHz (16 threads)
4x gigabit network
in total of 6TB hdd space (RAID 0)

VM SETTINGS:
cpu threads: 8
ram: 18gb
12gb HDD space
Networking on vertIO

Some screenhots:

cpu threads: 8

I think this may be problematic... more than 4 is supposed to be an issue due to the way bhyve does sockets vs threads.

ram: 18gb

Fine.

12gb HDD space

That seems too small (even for installation).

Networking on vertIO

Have you used the redhat/fedora VirtIO driver? The builtin Windows driver is known to have issues.

Also look at if you have the VNC device... remove it (after ensuring RDP is enabled) and use RDP.

Might also try disk on virtio, not AHCI

Uhm i typed it wrong!
I surpose to mean 120GB HDD

I have vertIO network drivers from redhead if i remember it right!

I will try to set the cpu to 4 instead of 8.
And after that the HDD to vertio as well.
