Huge slowdown on ESXi host..........and I've done nothing!

I'm really struggling here.

I have an ESXi 5.5u2 host that's been running fine with 2 VMs for a few weeks. Then I get in this Monday and everything is pretty much unusable! :smileyconfused:

The host has a 1 socket, 6 core, 12 logical processor Xeon CPU and 32 GB RAM.

VM_1 has 1x vCPU and 2GB RAM

VM_2 has 2x vCPU and 8GB RAM.

As you can see, nowhere near touching the physical resource on the host. So why am I getting the stats in the attached image (just used VM_1 as an example).

I've even gone as far as rebooting the ESXi host, and I stress I have not touched this host at all!

I'm looking for some expertise here, coz I clearly have none :smileycry:

Thanks
