Thank you for looking into this issue. Do you know if later versions of

Can you tell me what the "right drivers" are? Or do you mean enabling
"ACPI"?
I've just finished a whole slew of benchmarks and I'm going back to no-
acpi with the 200% CPU issue, because the VMs are actually faster that
way. Turning on ACPI is very slow.
Looking throw QEMU bug reports, I found t
It turns out, that if you use the ACPI Multiprocessor, this problem goes
away. If you use MPS Multiprocessor, then this problem occurs. The worst
part is if you originally built the VM without ACPI, then there is *no
way* to use on the ACPI HALs in Windows XP without reinstalling. There's

Public bug reported:
When using libvirt to give a domain 2 CPUs (2), the Windows XP kvm process will use
200% CPU when Windows is idle. Switching the number of CPUs back to 1,
the kvm process gives normal idle percentages.
Using libvirt 0.8.3-1ubuntu9, tried with the following qemu-kvm
packages:
