This is very suspect to me. Why should this app be taking any cycles when not in proper use, slicing etc? I understand every dormant app will take some resources, but for instance a big heavy app like Fusion 360 is only taking 0.6% CPU cycles? This is on an iMac M1
The networking module likes to crash on Linux and Mac. Likely that has gone into some kind of blocking loop. Usually you will get the “App has stopped responding” error after a while. You can use the advanced process explorer tools to investigate further.
Imagine believing that 5 EYES, or the USA, or the EU is not spying on you, and is not good friends with the police in your country. What is the PRC going to do, send Sun Wukong to kidnap you if you accidentally print something that looks like a gun part?
0 to 0.1% CPU within 5 seconds of the last activity, whether freshly opened or opened and active for hours.
The exception is having the Device tab displayed— it is never idle, constantly monitoring temperatures and printer status, or trying to, if the printer is off. Then CPU usage is 7.5-8%.
I would expect CPU usage to be higher in cloud mode.
Bambu Studio uses some proprietary networking module to talk to the printer, and it has issues on POSIX systems. It will mysteriously crash, hang, or hog the CPU sometimes.
