[Bug 1775702] Re: High host CPU load and slower guest after upgrade guest OS Windows 10 to ver 1803

[Gannet]

I found that C:\Program Files (x86)\SPICE Guest
Tools\drivers\Balloon\w10\amd64/blnsvr.exe intensively requesting
something in WMI-provider-host. And there are a lot of errors in event
logs about it also.
