4core CPU 2.8Ghz
CHR 6.41.2 Fresh install
with defaults and just 2IP and 1 Default route
update:
I have change 4 to 1 Core CPU for this CHR
and this is the result


Hi normisWhat is your question? You haven't even used half of your CPU resources (wasting them).
normis believe me 6.5GHz is not Little50% is little usage. You still have 50% unused CPU resources. You could route much more traffic.
2x Intel Xeon E5-2680v2Have You verified the core allocation, on the virtual host?
Take KVM as an example:
I can allocate (say) 4 cores, from my single CPU. But, then, I can tell the virtual host to allocate 8 cores, to the virtual machine. It is not a good idea, but can be done.
So, question: did you really allocate 4 real cores to the virtual machine? Or, by mistake, is it using only one hardware core? It would explain the CPU usage you are seeing: since there is only one hardware core to do the work, it would look more loaded, when you carve it in four.
there is no Firewall and queueWinbox shows 1 CPU, so only one core configured in your VM settings.
What RouterOS config you have? Firewall, NAT, any other config? In any case, 50% CPU usage is normal.
Well, it still doesn't answer the question. You have 20 cores, 40 threads, to use. When creating the virtual machine did You allocate 4 cores? To be perfectly clear: it is possible to allocate more threads than cores - you can allocate one core and 4 threads to the machine. It would show up as a machine with 4 cores (or CPUs, by your configuration) - but will have only one hardware core available to work these 4 threads.

The expected result is something on the same lines you are reporting.
P.S. - Last time I checked, the official recommendation from Intel was to disable HyperThreading on virtual hosts.
