Hi All
I met really strange problem. On 1 host we have 3 instances running in VM
machine. Yes, it was not configured properly, but...
default instance would shout 100% cpu right after startup. I checked all
event log records, errorlogs, dump logs - all look inocent. No option
changes, nothing.
Other 2 instances are just fine.
Any clue?

Can you look at sys.dm_exec_requests or master..sysprocesses while the CPU
is pegged like this?  How about running a lightweight trace on startup?  Not
everything that consumes CPU will necessarily have anything at all to do
with error logs...

I think it was just unproportional load on the instance, no technical problem.
