CPU Processing Distribution Question. Will 4 core VM use all physical cores on physical processor(s)?

Sorry if the title is vague, I am unsure how to properly word my question down to a single line. Anyways, on to my question, if I have two 16 core processors in a server, but I have 1 virtual machine that is setup with 4 cores, will the vmware only use 4 of the physical cores, or will the processing be distributed among all the cores? If searched the documentation but was unable to find much information about this specific situation. The reason I have it set to 4 cores instead of more is because the application I am trying to run only uses up to 4 core and if I can use vSphere to distribute out that processing it would greatly improve the performance. Thank you in advance.

Welcome to the Community - a VCPU can only run on a single core at a time - so your 4 VCPU vm will run only 4 of the 32 cores that are available in you ESXi host but each - the ESXi host is also smart enough not let the any of the 4 VCPUs share core either. By default the VM's VCPUs can be scheduled on any of the 332 physical cores
I am also moving your question to a more appropriate forum.

  • Mail is using 100% CPU processes - wondering if I possibly have the answer?

    Hi...
    I have a big problem with Mail using all the CPU processes but may just have found a possible solution. I'm posting to see if anyone else shares this problem or can shed some light on whether or not this is a possible solution.
    _*The Problem*_
    Over the past couple of weeks, I've noticed that Mail is using on average 100% of the processes and sometimes up to 168% (I have screenshots to prove it). My 17" MacBookPro gets very, very hot and the fans spin up to cool it down so it's obviously not right as it's never done this before. I can only use Mail intermittently now as the machine overheats quickly soon after Mail starts up. As a result, the CPU is being hammered so I can't now use Mail or other CPU intensive applications properly, which is a big problem.
    I've used the iStatPro widget to verify that Mail is constantly using 100% of the CPU processes. I've also verified this using Utilities / Activity Monitor. When the Activity Monitor application loads, I've selected Mail from the list of Process Names and then clicked Inspect. I've managed to identify the parent process as being launchd (110) which is using all the CPU power. Here are some other stats for this parent process:
    %CPU 95.56 (at that specific instance)
    Threads 15
    Ports 275
    CPU Time 3:30.55
    Context Switches 310968
    Faults 65795
    Page Ins 1
    Mach Messages In 272627
    Mach Messages Out 65025
    Mach System Calls 1459878
    Unix System Calls 103120
    I guess the important bit is the first bit that says 95.56%.
    I have screenshots to back this up but no way of posting them here. I have also managed to use Activity Monitor to generate sample data that the process is creating and again there is no way of posting an attachment here but there is lots of sample data from the process to look at. I've compared the sample data from my MacBookPro to a colleagues machine and the difference between the sample data is enormous. There is obviously something very wrong happening.
    Here's some basic info about my machine, with the serial number removed:
    Hardware Overview:
    Model Name: MacBook Pro 17"
    Model Identifier: MacBookPro2,1
    Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
    Processor Speed: 2.33 GHz

    _*The Possible Solution??*_
    I recently installed a Beta version of Daylite 3 as I was interested in the application and remembered that it integrates closely with Mail. I wondered if Daylite was constantly trying to communicate with Mail and having problems. Having uninstalled Daylite 3, the problem of Mail using all the processes has so far not reappeared. Mail is now using very little of the CPU processes as is usual. However, I'm currently at home instead of on my network at the office so I'll wait to see if the problem still fails to appear when at work.
    I know other people have had problems with Mail using 100% of the processes. Have you also installed Daylite 3? There has been some talk of Flip4Mac being a possible culprit but I use Flip4Mac and haven't previously had the problem. The only recent change and connection I can think of is an install of Daylite 3.
    I don't want to talk down Daylite 3 but it's the only thing I can think of and having uninstalled it, the problem hasn't occurred. I hope I have stumbled across the solution but any thoughts, shared experiences or feedback would be greatly appreciated...
    Many Thanks,
    Nigel

    Hi...
    Thanks for the post. Not sure what you mean when you say "What does Mail say it's doing?" Can you be more specific and supply specific instructions to follow so that I can give you the information you need?
    I've sampled the process but can't post any attachments on the forum. I've listed what the Activity Monitor stats are saying at the top level in the post above.
    This is a serious problem that's hammering my machine and making it overheat and almost making it unusable. Any feedback or instructions anyone can give me for what info to supply to help you determine what the issue is would be greatly appreciated. I'm hoping to find a solution here rather than have the machine overheat permanently and eventually fail, leaving me to sort it out with AppleCare.
    Help!

  • My wife and I have a family account at Verizon and are thinking of getting the IPhone 4S.  My question is can we both use the functions of Icloud on the same account at Verizon or do we have to have separate accounts to be able to use all the features

    My wife and I have a family account at Verizon and are thinking of both getting the IPhone 4S.  My question is can we both use all of the features of Icloud with one account at Verizon or do we need to have separate accounts?

    If Mail in Mavericks is the same as earlier versions you can select accounts in the sidebar, so that you can either display the inboxes for individual accounts, or the contents of all the account inboxes. (If the accounts don't show click the disclosure triangle next to 'INBOX'). The layout may have changed since the version I have - Snow Leopard - but you should be able to do the same thing.

  • Will the Core 2 Duo CPU work on the Qosmio G30?

    Question is as follow:
    In 2 months Intel will come up with Core 2 Duo/merom cpu for laptop.
    Will then todays toshiba qosmio laptop support these processors for an upgrade ?
    And wonder in general how much can be upgraded with toshiba laptop's?
    Like if I want to have e-sata on this laptop. Maybe not supported by chipset ?

    As you know this is a user-to-user forum and I don?t think that you will find somebody from Toshiba here.
    However, this is my own opinion and this could be one of the reasons. I agree with you that duo core 2 CPU supports less power and generate less heat but more or less this are also properties of the intel duo core CPUs.
    But I think that in the future the duo core 2 CPU will supports a higher speed as the duo core and I think the temp will also increases.
    You know that the notebooks technology is different as the desktop technology and it's more difficult to upgrade the parts on the notebook as on the desktop pc. Some CPUs are also soldered on the board. (but I'm not sure about Qosmio) But if you will be able to remove it and to upgrade the CPU so then you could get some problems with BIOS and also software (chipset utility?). Maybe this could have a bad influence on the drivers and utilities.
    As you see there are more factors as only the temperature. Everything must be compatible. I think the Qosmio G30 is a very nice notebook with really good performance. I think the CPU upgrade is not necessary because you will not get much more performance as with the core duo CPU.

  • Question: Will Lenovo S30 support i7-3770 cpu?

    Dear Lenovo Community,
    Recently I got a free i7-3770 cpu, I am wondering will the S30 Support this non-xeon CPU?
    I don't want to rip it apart and find out it doesn't work..if someone knows please let me know.
    BTW: the CPU is from the Lenovo computer.
    thanks.

    No.  I believe that CPU is a completely different package, so it won't work on S30.

  • Lightroom and processing platform question

    I have posted a version of this question on PS, but it is LR where it really matters.
    Some eons ago, I was a PS user and found my then-current machine had features which PS was not using. Cannot remember the fine detail, we are talking PS5 or 6...
    So, now I am contemplating buying a new i7 based machine with umpteen GB of memory and super graphics board. All these raise questions:can LRuse the speed features of the i7, can they use the umpteen GB, switch into the graphics stuff.
    I am fed up with the P4 3.2GHz, 3GB, GeForce 9800GT platform I have - it stumbles and makes me wait (.always Loading... taking seconds). will I end up finding things not much better on a platform potentially 50 times faster? Or is 50 times faster just a dream?
    If someone replies that their xxx with yyy goes like lightning, they will not be actually answering the question. I want to know if LR (and PS) can use all the bells and whistles available to them as processes - are they 64-bit so able to use the nnGB... etc etc
    Thanks...

    LR and PS can use multiple cores, perhaps not all 6 if you get a $1000 CPU--I base that on a benchmark that had LR running the same on both a quad and hex-core although no details were available on what the LR portion of the benchmark was doing.  LR and PS both have 64-bit editions. 
    CS4-PS takes advantage of the GPU for certain things, but LR seems to only be sped up by the OS using the GPU more, not LR using the GPU, specifically, itself. 
    CS5 and LR3 are just around the corner and we don't know everything GPU-wise they will take advantage of, although there are reports that CS5-Premier Pro will only use CUDA (nVidia) not OpenCL (ATI) because OpenCL is buggy, still.
    50-times-faster would be a benchmark that can use all the cores to their fullest, whereas LR does some things in parallel but not nearly everything, so the speedup will vary depending on what you do.
    I am about ready to build myself a i7 960 machine and expect LR and PS to be very fast on it.  I am not sure if I'll try using an SSD or not for the OS.  If I go with what I'm leaning towards at the moment, a Gigabyte GA X58A-UD7, it would likely have USB3 on a couple of the USB ports with a 6Gbps speed that a few peripherals can use.  It also has SATA3, which is half that speed, but faster than SATA2.  I don't know as I will be overclocking it, much, which depends on the cooling setup, so maybe the MB is overkill and I'll go for something cheaper.

  • Work process distribution

    Hello,
    For a new project I'm asked to design a work process distribution. I need to allocate the number of work process per application server (# Dia, # batch, # upd, etc....). I have a certain feeling on how I would like to distribute this, but I'm also looking for a "rule of thumb" on how to distribute the number of WP's per dialog server.
    Is there anybody who knows of a certain set of rules to help me out with this?
    A helpful answer will be rewarded with points.
    Thanks,
    Pascal.

    Hi,
    As far as I know there is no such thing as a rule of thumb for work processes but usually you can have 1 dialog for every 10 to 15 users (that´s what I was told at SAP Basis Academy) but also it is a tunning work to provide the right amount of work processes.
    Not enough dialog processes and user will get errors or will have to wait too much to get a response, too much and you will be wasting memory. If you have plenty of RAM Memory then go ahead and assign 1 dialog for every 5 users but if not, then you will need to work on it more That´s  the idea behind transactions like ST02, ST03N, etc
    I also depends on the correct use of the processes, if transactions that takes too much time are launched over dialog processes, then you will not have enough D WorkProccesses  to work with and the server performance will be affected so in much cases is a good idea to set the timeout parameter for dialog processes so the users avoid launching long processes over dialog instead of background.
    Background processes are NOT like Dialog and you should NEVER set such a thing like 1 bkg for every N number of users. BKG works on queues so they are not affecting user "normal" operations.
    Use operation modes so BKG processes can run batch jobs during off peak hours so everything will have its job done in a decent time.
    As I already mentioned, You could have an approach to how many D, BKG, SPOOL, etc work proceses needs but it is by no mean exact. I am a low experienced Basis consultant and I have seem installations with 50 users to 1000 and right now I´m on a client with more than 100 users concurrently connected and they just have 9 D and 3 BKG and users don´t have extreme performance problems even when running HR long proceses.
    Of course you cannot expect to have a system where long processes won´t affect somehow the performance during peak hours unless you have load balancing and all that stuff.
    Hope this help a bit to your question.

  • Why can't I make Lightroom use all the CPU-Power (all cores) available for generating Previews?

    Dear Lightroom Team,
    I've been a Lightroom user since the very first Beta, and I am truly happy with the work you deliver. It changed my way of editing forever, and you guys keep improving it.
    Yet there is that one question that bothers me, and that i'm looking for an answer for.
    My Workflow has the generate Previews checkbox checked by standard. I usually import between 150 and 2000 photos at once, on occaions it can be up to 5000 photos. Generating Previews always takes a significant amount of time, and Lightroom is only using 25% of my CPU Power while doing so. (using a MacBook Pro 8,2)
    I understand the concept, that only using 25% CPU enables me to use the computer while waiting for the Previews. But most of the time I just grab myself a cup of coffee, do the dishes or other stuff, while waiting for the Previews. Usually I rund out of things to do, because it takes ages to Process all the photos. So I would really love to make Lightroom use ALL the cpu power possible.
    I'm sure you guys have spent a lot of thoughts while coding this and have a very good answer handy. Looking forward reading it!
    all the best,
    Wolfgang

    On my four-year old Windows 7 i7-860 system LR4.4.1 takes ~0.5 sec. per Canon 5D MKII 21Mp raw image to render 'Standard-Sized' previews with LR Catalog Settings 'Standard Preview Size' set to '2048' pixels. I consider that pretty fast!
    I usually build 1:1 full-size previews on import, which takes ~5.0 sec. per image. Processor utilization varies between 15-50% for Standard-Sized previews and 15-65% for 1:1 previews. I consider this pretty slow, but it doesn't stop me from working on the images inside LR's Library and Develop modules.
    I wait until 'Copy and import photos' has completed and can see Preview Building has started. LR doesn't slow-down much even with the 1:1 preview building going on in the background. Have you tried working in LR during the preview building (i.e. sorting,  rating, keywording, and Develop adjustments)?

  • Process Flow Question

    Oracle 11.1.0.7:
    We currently have various mappings and what we want is in process flow to fork and merge back and only if all those mappings are successfully completed then go further in the process flow. I see that it allows fork for parallel processing but there is no merge. So how do I merge them all back and go to the next step in process flow. Next step of process flow is dependent on successful completion of all the previous mappings. And we want all the previous mappings to be executed in parallel for performance reasons.
    I earlier posted this question on Database General.

    Hi ,
    Just use the "AND" operator in the process flow. Take the success transition from all your mappings to a SINGLE "AND" operator.
    Make the successful transition of all the mappings to go into AND operator. AND operator will make sure that all the mappings are executed and then it will be move ahead processing other activities in your process flow.
    After AND operator you can put a FORK or other mappings or any other objects in your process flow.
    Thanks,
    Sam.

  • Process Integrator question?

  • Sorry, another CPU fan speed question.

    Hi,
    Just got a new 2011 iMac 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5 21 inch. First mac and loving it so far! I can hear the fans just slightly at idle in a quiet room and checked on this forum to see what is the normal idle fan speed.
    Most of the results come back with the CPU fan running at around 938 rpm. mine is constant at 1199 rpm. A few others have this speed too, but he majority are around the 938 rpm level (some much higher). My temps also seem lower than most at idle too (due to the higher fan speed i guess).
    OP Drive 998
    HD Drive 1099
    CPU 1199
    My question/s:
    Why the difference between machine (shouldn't they be set the same in all machines with the same spec with software)?
    And is the normal??
    Thx

    Also, would I notice it being quieter with it at 938 compared to 1199?

  • Will Intel Core Duo image work with Intel Core 2 Duo image

    I soon need to start preparing an image for the next school year since we are soon going to start moving into a completely new campus which images will need to be ready for lab imaging over the summer and the sooner I can have a lab image ready to be tested the better, but my question is......
    If I create an Intel image on a "Intel Core Duo Processor " which we have currently, to then create this image and then push out two two complete brand new labs of what will be "Intel Core 2 Duo Processors"
    I know in the past I have created images on the highest PowerPC computer (G5) and had the image on G3's, G4's, G5's etc. an work. I'm not sure if the difference in the processor will require the image to be made on the very same computer or not. If so, we will need to purchase one.
    Anyways..... just wondering if someone has already tested this or played around with it?
    Thanks,
    Carter

    The build version on the Core Duo models is not the same as the build version on the Core 2 Duo models. These individual builds are customized for their respective hardware. The only version of OS X that will be common for all Intel models will be a public build version that supercedes both custom builds.
    The extant builds are here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303315. However, the table does not include the latest Core 2 Duo MBP.
    If you upgrade all Intel Macs to 10.4.8 then an image of that version of OS X should be common to all Intel Macs.

  • Sync question: Will my iAnnotate documents be deleted upon iTunes sync?

    Apple technology is still very much a conundrum to me. Basically, on my iPad, I have iAnnotate, and i load powerpoints into it for classes and take notes on those powerpoints. I actually havent connected my iPad to my computer since I set my iPad up because I'm afraid at some point in the sync/update/whatever process, my files will be wiped from my iAnnotate app.
    Is there any way that my files would be wiped? What would lead to that happening? On a broader scale, can you explain what it really means to "sync" your device when it's plugged into your computer? I know this is such a novice question, but I'm confused about exactly what syncing does to the content and data on your mobile device when you sync it on your computer. Is it essentially wiping your mobile device (and therefore, the files saved on apps), and replacing it with the versions on your computer? (for example, iAnnotate, but with no saved files)?
    Thank you for your help.

    JTChal,
    My name is Andrew, I'm on Branchfire's Support Team.
    Any update - has the potential to cause issues with the data stored in on your iPad.  At Branchfire, we highly recommend user's make use of a cloud-service like Dropbox, Google Drive, Skydrive to store your documents.  That way you always have a backup of your work (and most of those service have methods of recovering previous version and even deleted files).  We provide easy ways to connect to these cloud-services within iAnnotate to easily access your files, annotate them, and ensure they are saved back to the cloud. 
    We highly recommend you email our support team at [email protected] if you have further questions - it is the best way to ensure we see your question and get you a helpful response.
