2.)  Are you using a separate NIC for the HD Homerun?  If so, what type?  What you could be seeing is that while the HD Homerun is in place the HD Homerun is creating additional interrupts which is causing an additional load on the system.

yea I am using an Intel gigabit nic plugged directly from that into my HD HR, no switches or hubs or anything like that.

Something to try if you haven’t done so is to set the interrupt moderation to extreme and increase the receive buffers. This would help to increase system resource availability to some degree.
