High CPU & GPU usage on MacOS (2)

I’ve had Roon playing in the background while I work - I’m just using Chrome and Mail - so nothing intensive. After 2.5 hours the fan has suddenly come on to full and Roon is hogging resources. Why?

Roon has kept the fan spinning at maximum for 7 minutes so I’ve quit Roon and the fan has stopped immediately. Nothing on the computer is now using the GPU.

Immediately on restart Roon has grabbed all of the GPU and the fan is on maximum - it’s kept that up for 37 minutes.

I’ve rebooted the computer and restarted Roon. Usage is back to normal

I’ve played one track, fan has come again so I’ve pressed pause and Roon is still going crazy.

Please can somebody from the Roon Development Team respond?

Thanks
