Extreme idle CPU use with control mode, Mac & Windows

Hello @David_Nanian,

A few other questions:

  • Can you please confirm that the Macbook Pro that you are using is logged out and it is not being used as the Core in this case?
  • How long does the high CPU usage remain for? Is it a temporary spike or does it keep growing?
  • Would you be able to create a 30 second GIF of the average CPU usage using LICECap Screen Recording Software?
  • If you minimize Roon to the Dock, does the CPU usage drop as per this user’s similar report?
  • Do you have Dropbox set up in Roon? I also saw this report that disabling Dropbox as a watched folder would return the CPU usage back to normal, I would give that a try if you are using Dropbox.

Please let me know your findings when possible.

Thanks,
Noris
