Host-Only Network hangs under high traffic

I have the following configuration:

WinXP SP2 guest OS with a cvsnt client.
Host-Only-Networking with a manual DHCP IP.

With the new Beta6 I can not update my repository on the guest os
with the server on the host. It produces a lot of traffic on the network and
stalls. After that the program hangs and no network traffic is indicated in the
status bar. To assure this is a parallels issue I did the following investigation:

- I switched to bridged networking over AirPort: everything is fine.
cvs co and cvs update are working (no restart of the host in between)
- I completely uninstalled beta6 and installed beta5 again.
I can use bridged and host-only networking to successfully access the cvsnt server.

But no luck with beta6 and host-only networking. The configuration is ok. I can ping
the host from the guest and vice versa. And I can do a cvs login from the guest. Only
high traffic calls with cvs hang.

Thank you very much,
bigman

I hope this issue is alreadey tracked. I want to emphasize that this is a bug in the fixed
beta 6 version. Is there anything I can do to help to reproduce this behaviour?

Thanks,
