Hello Nick,

Any reason to suspect the pthreads-win32 library especially? Generally 
it's designed not to cause continuous CPU load (with one exception on 
SMP machines being pthread_spin_lock, but which is intended only for 
very short duration locks).

Have you reported this to the VRP developers?

Regards.
Ross
