| 8 | Some Linux guests may cause a high CPU load even if the guest
|
|---|
| 9 | system appears to be idle. This can be caused by a high timer
|
|---|
| 10 | frequency of the guest kernel. Some Linux distributions, for
|
|---|
| 11 | example Fedora, ship a Linux kernel configured for a timer
|
|---|
| 12 | frequency of 1000Hz. We recommend to recompile the guest kernel
|
|---|
| 13 | and to select a timer frequency of 100Hz.

| 16 | Linux kernels shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux, as well as
|
|---|
| 17 | kernels of related Linux distributions, such as CentOS and
|
|---|
| 18 | Oracle Linux, support a kernel parameter
|
|---|
| 19 | <i>divider=N</i>. Hence, such kernels support a
|
|---|
| 20 | lower timer frequency without recompilation. We suggest you add
|
|---|
| 21 | the kernel parameter <i>divider=10</i> to select a
|
|---|
| 22 | guest kernel timer frequency of 100Hz.
