I don't seem to be able to reproduce this (on Debian 9.5). I just
installed VAX/VMS 5.5-2 and DECwindows (from AG-PSA5B-RE - VMS
REMASTERED V5.5-2 BIN CDROM) using your configuration file but I only
see about 10% of the host CPU being used by Simh when logged into
DECwindows.

The only slight difference is that I'm PCAP for the Ethernet connection
rather than TUN/TAP. Do you have anything else running in the background
(DECnet, UCX, clustering etc.)? I will try to setup the same.
