Very Strange Lag

So, I was having an issue today where my profile kept freezing on a certain profile. I was messing around with the profile order, trying to fix it, when it froze again on another run through. It froze so completely, that I had to do a hard reboot on my computer, which ended up corrupting my VM save.

Unfortunately, I did not have the foresight to make a clone of it before (or, I did think about it, but had not made one yet), so I had to completely remake it.

Once everything was setup again, I started my bot up, and I started getting very strange lag. When I load D3, everything is fine. I can load into a game and run around with no issues, but as soon as I load DB and try to have it run a profile, my character starts sticking. He will run for 1 second, then stick for 5+ seconds, then run for 1, then stick for 5+. I originally thought it was from a new version of a plugin, so I tried a completely fresh DB with 0 plugins, and I am having the same problem. I've tried to allocate more ram to my VM (Up to over 3 gigs at this point, and that could not be the issue), I've turned every possible setting down, I have tried multiple profiles, I have tried updating everything I can think of, and nothing works. It acts as if DB is consuming 20x as much processing power as D3.

Anyone else experience this before?
 
Maybe it is the connection to DB itself? When trying to post this, it took over a minute just for my post to be submitted and load. I was able to go load a few other websites while it was still attempting to post this, just to see if it was my connection in general, and it does not seem to be that.
 
whats your background fps value? (D3 settings)
 
whats your background fps value? (D3 settings)

Have background and foreground both set to 15, but I have tried various amounts above and below that with no success. Previously I was running it in fullscreen (windowed) mode, with the FPS unthrottled, settings not at the minimum, while running another copy of D3 on the main part of my box, and multiple tabs on firefox on my second monitor without even getting a single spike of lag. Once I had to reinstall, I've tried to turn the FPS down, all settings down, and even went to windowed mode with it pushed down as small as I can get it, and edited the config file to make my graphics so bad that the characters look like play-doh. Absolutely no lag until DB tries to take over the movement, then it is back to 1 second of movement, 5 seconds frozen.
 
I have tried 50, 100, 150, and unlimited. I have tried all the DB builds (the one from today, the beta, and the previous one). I have tried with and without plugins. I have tried multiple profiles. I have tried 3 completely fresh VMs, and different builds of windows 7. I have tried everything I can think of, other than running it without VM (which I do not want to do until I make sure all of my main accounts gear is sold and all the money is in my paypal).

Nothing has worked, and it was working most of the day yesterday.
 
Nevermind. I am completely retarded. I spaced out on the cpu part of setting up all of these VMs. I had it trying to run the machine on 1 core, which was fine for Windows and D3, but when it tried to add DB in, it was going over its processing ability.

I moved it up to using 4 cores, and its running smoothly again.
