Hi Alex,

Do you know which process (name of the executable) is doing this?
Perhaps this would help track down the issue?

    And the email came in just now.  I've started the VM again.  Volunteers are 
welcome to verify it is operating correctly, try to deal with the task that is 
eating up our CPU credits, etc.

        Last time we had this problem, I discovered that the version of Windows 
we are running has a bug/feature where some background task spends several days 
running at 50% CPU.  This causes our free credits to run out before the end of 
month.  Before I was able to find some solution to the background task, it 
finished whatever it was doing, and for the past few months the background task 
has done whatever it needs to do without causing problems so I stopped looking 
into it.  But I'm guessing that again this month, that task caused us to run 
out of credits.

        I don't remember exactly when the next month starts (pretty sure it 
isn't the 1st), and I'll receive an email when the next batch of credits are 
put in my account.

        As I've mentioned several times, it would be a good idea for other 
committers to set up similar VMs as backups to mine.  If you want, you can even 
provide a credit card to charge overage credits against so your VM will never 
go down, but you might end up paying significant money if some task runs at 50% 
CPU for a month.  I'm not generous enough to do that for Royale at this time.

        It also just occurred to me that someone could set up a task on 
builds.a.o that copies artifacts from this VM and have our website point there 
instead of directly to the VM.  That way if it does run out of credits, it 
won't make as big a problem.

        And, of course, some third party could provide a VM.

        HTH,
