I'm running Win7 in Parallels for Mac. I see Parallels is always over 100% cpu usage when Win7 never gets above 15% memory and cpu. Why is Parallels so hard on my Mac? I'm running a MBP 2.7 Ghz Intel Core i7 with 16GB RAM and SSD with 30+ GB free space.
Hi Brettr2, Please follow the steps suggested at, http://kb.parallels.com/112764 and http://kb.parallels.com/116263. If the issue persist, please try creating an empty Virtual Machine and then check the CPU usages. Refer http://kb.parallels.com/121578
