I'm using Hyper-V on a Windows 2012 R2 system. The system has a Intel Core i7-4700MQ processor. I created a VM running Windows Server 2008 with 4 processors and no limit to system use (or so I thought). The VM seemed to be taking a long time to install updates. I ran perfmon on the VM and it showed 2 processors averaging 30% and the other 2 around 14%. All four were hitting 100% at times. But when I ran perfmon on the server it was averaging 3% and maxing out at 18%. I only had the one VM running. Is there some way to get the VM to use the system resources more effectively?
