CPU Usage pretty high on M1 Mac

Question

CPU Usage pretty high on M1 Mac

Universumgames opened this issue 3 years ago · comments

It's not really a bug, but more an annoyance. The CPU usage of eul on my M1 Pro is pretty high with idling around 100% in the Activity Monitor (probably taking one full efficiency core?).

Screenshots

Context

eul version: v1.6.2
macOS version: 12.2
Device model: MacBook M1 Pro 16" 512 GB 16 GB

Debug Output
Nothing interesting going on here, but if you wish so...

Terminal output of running eul for around 5 seconds and opening menu

Update to cpu usage after apparently 6 hours (CPU time) or rather 3 hours realtime...

Tom · Answer 2 · Wed Jan 12 2022 22:28:41 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

quitting and reopening the application decreases the CPU usage down to <5% when the menu is open and disappears from the first "page" ~20 entries when the menu is closed ( <1% CPU usage)

Musa · Answer 3 · Fri Jan 14 2022 16:10:56 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

It is not optimized for any Apple Silicon devices. We have been waiting since @gao-sun has gotten a new Pro machine but he has not done so yet, but we are all hoping for an M1 version soon!

Gao Sun · Answer 4 · Fri Jan 14 2022 16:12:12 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

I'm working on it. Will publish a new version once complete.

Musa · Answer 5 · Wed Feb 16 2022 14:51:17 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

I'm working on it. Will publish a new version once complete.

Excited!

Thank you! I just discovered the app, amazed, but then found it eat like 1-2 cores of my M1, so had to shut it down for now.
Hope it will be an easy transition!

And by the way, is there any way I can buy you a cup of coffee or support you in some other way?

Ivan Larionov · Answer 7 · Wed Feb 23 2022 02:56:42 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

I don't think it's an M1 issue. I saw this happening on Intel Mac as well. Restart of EUL usually fixed it for a while.

Alexander Potemkin · Answer 8 · Wed Feb 23 2022 04:46:25 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

To support this thesis, on M1 it doesn’t start eating the processor immediately after the start.

Gao Sun · Answer 9 · Fri Mar 04 2022 17:02:20 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

please see #243

Alexander Potemkin · Answer 10 · Fri Mar 04 2022 18:11:43 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

Thanks for letting know!

sowhyim · Answer 11 · Thu Feb 08 2024 15:08:33 GMT+0800 (China Standard Time)

I got the same issue, but it seems not only the M1.
got sample here, hope this can been fixed
