What is VMware doing?

I running a Mid-2010 Mac Pro w/ 2 x 2.4 Ghz Quad-Core Intel Xeon processors and 32GB 1066MHz DDR3 ram.

And 8.5.10 version of VMware Fusion.  (apparently, I cannot upgrade any further due to the age of my system.

But recently (maybe within the last month), I have noticed something very peculiar happening.  I am not sure that my system is slowing down, but it probably is.

Attached is an image of the VMware icon on the dock.  I can't find out what it means it is doing.  Can anyone tell me?

Hi,

Normally that progress indicator is show when you make a snapshot.

Did you perhaps turn on the auto-protect feature?
