    Hi cpu usage for windows 11 in coherence on mac M1

    I've just updated to macOS 26 and I was noticing a very high GPU usage when I'm running Windows 11 Pro 24H2 for ARM. When I use Windows full screen, the GPU usage almost drops to zero. I mostly use Parallel in Coherence mode, so it's a bit of a downer. Am I the only one with this issue?
