is causing this?

There isn't really a straight forward way to do that. From what I can tell this is a Windows 10 VM? I tried to look around what is currently the best way to find misaligned memory access from a user's perspective (not a developer's!). However, I haven't found much, especially not in cases where you analyze a VM, which adds at least one layer of indirection. Your best bet may be to turn off one task at a time and see if that stops the messages from appearing.

However, even then there isn't much you can do other than contact the vendor of said software and tell them to fix it.

well my ui slows down too if i leave the system for some time.
open ip and "Linux PAM standard authentication" comes after some time and login.
open shell then again it takes sometime.
open hardware of any vm takes some time, after login leave it for 2 minutes speed in ui is fine.
same with all browsers or any machine.
cpu is at 9% i5 3700k
ram is used 74% 32gb ddr5
hdd sppeds 7000m read 5800write nvme. 980 pro
all disks test okay.
changed the lancard too.

i have a few windows vms , access them from rdp they are fine
iperf is goo approx 800-900

is it the 6.2 kernel
