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?
