Unless you use the correct idlepc value for your ios image, you will always
show 100% CPU usage. On the Dynamips application console find the idle pc
value and save it to the db, rather that those standard ones on the net.

Subject: OT: Dynamips Question
I have a laptop with a 1.7Ghz Centrino and 2GB of RAM running bare bones XP.
I was able to bring up the entire IE Lab (14 devices) on 2 Dynamips
instances but obviously it runs like molasses going uphill in January. The
CPU stays pegged at 100% and there is still about 125MB of RAM free. I can
run a browser and wordpad on the laptop without much pain, but when I telnet
to the routers (from another laptop) it is unusable. I do connect but just
painfully slow.
Any performance tuning ideas? I would like to keep the environment on the
laptop because as a consultant I travel a lot. It's nice to have your lab
portable.
Thanks for the advice.
Patrick
