    <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Hi,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;We bought a Panda Gate Defender Performa vApliance with 1000+ account, in its document, they advised to use ESX v4 and allocate 2x Intel(R) Dual-Core CPU 3.2GHz and 4GB RAM to it.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;now, there is an HP DL 380 with 16 GB ram here, I've deployed Panda OVF file and increased CPU to 4 vSocket and 2 core per socket, also its RAM changed to 8 GB, in both ESX v4 and ESXi v5, the problem is similar and obvious that by increasing the concurrent connections, CPU load stocks on 100% and the Internet flow gets slow. Am I did something wrong?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;bear mind that:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;1- we had a real appliance of Panda Performa which was on SUN hardware, it had been working fine even on 5000+ networks.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;2- I increased CPU and RAM before even starting it for first time and situation was the same.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;2.5- I reserved about 80% of those CPU and RAM for it and nothing changed.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;3- I'm sure there is no license problem.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;4- at the end of the business time which there is just few people in company, everything is fine and CPU never get up to 10%.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;5- Panda gate is based on Debian 2.6 and there is no root access for me.&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper" image-alt="vm.jpg"&gt;&lt;img src="https://communities.vmware.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/42485i19FE6657B2991342/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;amp;px=999" role="button" title="vm.jpg" alt="vm.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I've attached an image to this topic that shows the situation of this vAppliance in Vcenter.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Any help is appreciated,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;BR,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Assigning too much resources to a single VM could result in less performance, depending on the available host resources. Although I don't know what type of CPUs you have in your host and also which workload the host currently handles, I'd suggest you lower the CPU assignment to e.g. 2 virtual Dual-Cores instead of 4 and remove all reservations, ... to see if this changes anything.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;André&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
