SSMS.EXE 100% CPU

We have more thn 1 2012 R2 hyper-v server. Only on 1 are we experiencing 100% CPU with ssms.exe process which slows other VM's way down. The way that i understand, smss.exe is there because we use dynamic memory. Is that why the smss.exe process is there? We use dynamic memory on all our hyper-v servers and i dont see sssms.exe on any other server much less using 100% of the CPU. All the hyper-v servers are hyper-v servers only meaning the host does nothing but hyper-v. They all have available memory both on the host. Seems there are 2 ssms.exe processes:

I can kill the process but it will eventually come back eating up 100% CPU and i have rebooted the physical server. When i kill the 98% process, the vm's work fine and everything appears to work but why is it there?
