So over the years I've been testing the latest builds to see if it's worth switching over.
I like the new features, but the CPU utilization tax on v7.2.x is astronomical compared to version 6.1.x.
Windows Host
v7.2.x - 79% CPU | Unusable
v6.1.x - 18% CPU | 100% usable
Comparing Vbox's builds. Dual EPYC 7742 | 37 Win. VM's | v6.1.x = 18% CPU | v7.2.x = 79% CPU | v6.1.x Wins Hands Down

Looks like this needs an explicit investigation - we don't have this behavior on our radar.
