Higher CPU usage after upgrade. Last week was 4.9%, after upgrade running steady at 22%.
Mine has increased significantly, prior to upgrade around 5%, after upgrade 7-18%,currently shows 12%. A well spec'ed home system.

Hi,
I think there was a comment about additional features in the software version, would that be the cause and what are the additional features?

I can confirm a higher CPU usage baseline on a virtualized XG, previously on 18.5.1 it was around 4% now it is around 7-8% with 18.5.2. I'm not experiencing any problems though. I'm not seeing an increased CPU baseline on an SG430 or XGS136, FWIW.
