Hi Bob, I followed a thread on this topic a year or so ago but noted that it hadn't come to conclusion. I too have been noticing high CPU utilization from HSPI_BLLAN.exe on one of my two HS3 machines. Both machines are physically identical (Asus EeeBox w/Atom N270 CPU - 2GB Memory & 60GB SSD). Both running WinXP SP3 with the same drivers. For purposes of this, I'll refer to them as System 1 and System 2.
System 1: Running only HS3

Both systems have 1 computer device configured in BLLAN, localhost @ 127.0.0.1, so as to make the ping time as short as possible. 10 second ping intervals.
BLLAN on System 1 consumes 20-25% CPU during each ping, however, System 2 is negligible. I incrementally disabled plugins on System 1 to see if there was some other interaction, but it made no difference. Attached are screenshots from Sysinternals Process Explorer with the HSPI_BLLAN.exe process singled out. You can see the CPU spike on System 1 at 10 second intervals. There is also a considerable difference in I/O activity on System 1 vs. System 2.
That said, I was wondering if there is anything that jumps out at you that might explain this? Thanks in advance...
