To be more specific... 4CPUs+4GB RAM causing reboot/shutdown to freeze.
This happens even with non-GPLPV enabled guests. So this is not GPLPV
related.




Unfortunately I don't have enough time to coordinate with Windows team
to test out stability of "pre" GPLPV drivers. I have to push out those
guests as it is for now. I will continue to test out GPL PV drivers as
new ones is released on my dev servers. Thanks again.
