Greetings,

I am running 9plan on VMware Fusion successfully, however, the CPU is
pegged.  I've seen this before with DOS.  Basically the OS has its own idle
loop so VMware sees it as always using CPU.  There is a patch to fix this
issue with a DOS guest.  Any ideas with 9front?

Thanks.

Blake McBride
