Slow Virtual Machine inside Hyper V Core

i have following : hyper v core 2008 r2 running on 2 x intel xeon e5606 processors. vm windows server 2003 32 bit os. seen below vm quite active, on screenshot below actual hyper v core taskmanager not active. vm quite slow.

hyper v core taskmanager

to helpful need better understanding of symptom describing 'slowness'

there many reasons perception of 'slow' of depends on great number of different possibilities. 

one item disk io, 1 processor, can hardware agents in vm, yet can baggage p2v operation, , can applications running in vm, or roles in vm.  these things contribute.

simply showing processor metrics (expected metrics way) not useful.

and, statements , questions go hypervisor - not hyper-v.
