Hardware: Core2Quad 9550 and 6 GB RAM
I installed the UTM from an iso image and the system has 3 GB RAM and two cpus assigned.
I constantly getting segfaults in my kernel.log Even if the system is not in use, because nobody is at home. I came back from a short trip today, and this is, what my kernel.log looks like.

Often this results in a hanging confd.plx process which is consuming 100% CPU which is not very healthy for my electricity bill. For now I disabled smtp and webfiltering, so the only active features are some firewall rules und the intrusion prevention
On the server there are also two other VMs running which are not showing any problems at all. Also the logs of the ESXi itself doesn't show any probs.
But I'm digging in the dark here, I can't find whats the reason. If there would be faulty RAM there should be more problems in all VMs. Up to now i'm very impressed over the features sophos is offering for free, but the software seems very buggy to me.
Any idea you have would be appreciated.
[EDIT]
If if is helpful, I used the "Other Linux 3.x Kernel x64" option and machine version 11
