Performance Monitor Always Orange, Y?

I have it installed on a Hyper-V machine, 4 cores 8GB RAM, and 60GB SAS drive allocated. Processor is an E3-1230v3. Connection is 150/20mbps. 

I periodically see an orange performance indicator but for the most part it is green. 

Thanks for sharing your setup. I also have it installed on Hyper-V however I only allocated 2 cores and 6GB of RAM, Maybe that's my problem y I am seeing orange all the time. How are you allocating 4 cores to a CPU that is only 4 Cores? Does that not leave any cores for the host? I am just learning VMs as this is the very first VM I ever setup so maybe I can learn something here

Sorry for the confusion, I used the wrong term. I assigned 4 vCPU (virtual processors) to Sophos. Hyper-v doesn't dedicate those processors to the VM, it will manage the load across all available cores. 

Thanks for the response. I am a VM newbie and what I am trying to figure out is can I assign 4 vCPU to the VM in Hyper-V and the host will still run OK?

My host runs fine, but it all depends on what other VMs you have or other services running on the same server. It also depends on how many policies created in XG as well as the WAN connection speed.
