Roon 1.7 causing MacbookPRO 2018 to run fans at high speed

[Gordon_Fortune]

Hi,

I have this same issue too on a Mac Mini, on which I opened [this ticket] (Roon and RAATServer consuming over 300% and 100% CPU on Mac Mini) with lots of debug info in it before finding this thread.

To answer the questions you posted above @noris

• What is the model of the Macbook Pro and from what year is it?

Mac Mini 2018 3.2GHz 6‑core 8th‑generation Intel Core i7
Mac OS Mojave 10.14.6
32Gb RAM 2666MHz DDR4
256GB SSD storage

• Do you notice consistent 200% CPU usage or would you define them more as “spikes” that go up and down?

Its consistent for hours no matter what you do in the app.

• Does rebooting temporarily resolve this issue?

Yes it does

• What is your networking gear model/manufacturer and how is the Core connected to the network (WiFi/Ethernet)?

Ubiquity -
185Mbps DL via Comcast DOCSIS 3 connected to
Unifi Security Gateway In turn to
Unifi 16 port managed switch
1Gbps connections on wired Ethernet to the core and library
Library is on a 6 disk Netgear ReadyNAS with dual bonded 1Gbps to the Unifi switch
