IT would be nice to make the guest wait, not to pause the VM, that would make more sense in this case. though it's true it might not be implemented ... Gh.

It seems like upon some level of IO activity it hangs for a bit. I am using a SSD already. I am not sure you can do that. <div class="gmail_extra"> <div class="gmail_quote">On Oct 13, 2016 11:17, "Ghormoon" <<a moz-do-not-send="true" href="mailto:ghormoon@gmail.com"><a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:ghormoon@gmail.com">ghormoon@gmail.com</a></a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"> Hi, Shuttering/hangs usually happen to me if IO doesnt manage to cope with the load.

I mean totally very short freezes. It can't be the input pheriphrals, since I am using Synergy. Can it be CPU related? I have a FX-8230 with 8 cores and I am using only 6 Cores for the Guest with the following pinning: Core 1 - 2-3 Core 2 - 4-5 Core 3 - 6-7 Tried with both .raw and .qcow2 on ext4 Storage.
