Scroll is using a lot of CPU
Hello
In my application I have a general scroll that contains a lot of tables and tabs.
The scroll is working slow and is using a lot of CPU power.
Table scrolls are working fine.
Could be something wrong in the code?
Thank you
Of course there could be something wrong in your code. Can you post an SSCCE that reproduces this behaviour?

Seems Firefox is suddenly using a lot of CPU power
My desktop, recently, started sounding like it was really laboring while I wander around the net. And there's a delay as I type messages like this... the letters show up a second or two behind the keystrokes.
I looked at CPU usage (Win XP with all updates) and while I'm doing this, it sometimes peaks to 35% or higher for Firefox.exe.
My laptop has recently started telling me Firefox is using a lot of memory and I should close and restart Firefox. (Also updated Win XP)
It's becoming a big PITA...It didn't show up when i searched for the problem on Google and it didn't show up when i search here on Firefox's support site either.
And the reason it didn't because it's mostly not about my problem.
'''If' it was one of those things then i would have a high CPU usage the minute i opened my browser, but i don't.'''
'''It will use a lot of CPU power (after a couple of hours) even if i don't do anything '''
And yes hardware acceleration is on and so is submit performance data and i use Ad Block Plus, and there isn't a correctly working theme or add-on out there that could use 50-60% of a 3.2GHz quad core CPU
I don't think this is something that can be fixed that easily -
Photos is now using a lot of CPU. This is after it converted my iPhoto library. Is this normal? Is anyone else seeing this on their machine? Here's a screen shot with
Photos hidden (not actively being used).It's probably still building the library and optimizing. Mine is still way up there as well. I'm going to let it run over night and see where it's at in the morning.

Ditto Using A Lot Of CPU? Fans Run Often
It seems to be the culprit in causing the fans to run fast since installing SL. I stop the process from the Activity Monitor but it starts back. AM shows ditto at 90% when it's running. The fans come on, I stop ditto and they slow down, later the fans come on again, I check and ditto is running again and at 90%...............
Actually resolved this. Related to unzip issue.
Attempting to unzip some files locks up the Archive Utility. Force Quitting the Archive Utility leaves ditto open and using a lot of CPU.
Therefore, I'm using The Unarchiver (as kindly suggested by someone on my unzip problem post) at least until Apple updates the Archive Utility. -
I had been using iTunes for a few hours on my Powerbook and noticed it was using a lot of cpu (about 30-40%) for just playing a song.
I quit the application, and then noticed the following message in my console at around that time:
Jan 19 17:23:16 My-Powerbook mDNSResponder: -1: DNSServiceResolve("My Music", "daap.tcp.", "local.") failed: Client id -1 invalid (-65549)
This looks like it was doing some DNS operation that couldn't be completed?
The application now is working fine after restarting it with the usual sub-10% activity level.
This is iTunes 6.0.2 and the ministore is disabled. Playing was just to local speakers from the local library.
Thanks for any help

They will just say it's a software problem you need to fix most likely.
However if you have exhausted your software fixes and/or Hardware Test gives something, it could be a hardware problem, but likely it's software for what your mentioning. -
Firefox 9 after a while starts using a lot of CPU power, need help!
After a while (2 hours or more) firefox 9 (not the plugin container) starts eating up more and more CPU power, usually just to 25% (because usually i close it and restart it after that), but today i had work to do and i couldn't restart it right then and that resulted in firefix using about 50-60% of a 4 core 3.2GHz CPU (AMD Phenom II X4 955).
I'm not doing anything extraordinary just writing emails and just plain normal browsing)
I only notice this because my CPU fan speeds up and makes a lot more noise if using more then 20% CPU power.
I'm pretty sure regular users wouldn't notice anything until it started to slow down their whole PC
I'm using Firefox 9.0.1 running on Win 7 64bit, i have about 20-30 tabs always open (loading) and i haven't tried disabling any add-ons.
I've read on forums that this might have something to do with flash data piling up, or with having to many tabs open.It didn't show up when i searched for the problem on Google and it didn't show up when i search here on Firefox's support site either.
And the reason it didn't because it's mostly not about my problem.

Clean sl installation, latest flash. I just found out that flash uses quite a lot of CPU, it wasn’t this bad with Leopard. Sometimes when browsing on regular news sites, I see flash uses up to 130% of my CPU. That is a failure!
I am not interested in any plugin, so I just temporary disable plugins from Safari preset meny.

I uninstalled the player form my system, and reinstalled it again. Now the performance on safari got better... but still eating 30-40% only moving a few movieclips... -
Long running processes using a lot of CPU
Hi all,
We have a clustered environment and on both the DB nodes there are processes that is taking a lot of CPU and runs a really long time. The load of the servers get really high and performance degrades drastically.
I've traced the processes and the module is usually a combination of the following:
icx.por.rcv.server.ReceiveItemsAM
icx.por.reqmgmt.server.ReqMgmtAM
I know it has something to do with Purchase Orders.
Can someone please give me more info on this processes and what I can do about them?
Thanks in advance...Step by Step to fix your Mac

Does Time Machine use a lot of CPU power if I leave it on ?
If I leave Time Machine on and have it automatically back up every hour, will that use much of my cpu ?
minimal usage after the initial backup.
Look at your Activity Monitor and see for yourself.

New take on the old "Finder using a lot of CPU"
Been searching a lot and found next to nothing but "reinstall OS X" advice around.
My situation:
I run a 1 CPU, 4 core 2008 Mac Pro with all updates.
My Finder constantly uses 65 - 80 % CPU on one of the cores. It also has 16 - 18 threads open. It does not matter how many (or few) windows or applications I open. It will do this constantly.
I have done a little nosing about but found very little. The weird thing is that if i rightclick on the desktop, the CPU will immediately drop to normal usage.
What on earth is going on here?!?
-KJAnd out of the blue, my problem returns. Exactly the same symptoms as last time, save for the CPU usage now being 40 - 60 % of one core.
Right clicking the desktop drops the usage down to normal levels in a split second.
I tried killing the process now, and it seems to have worked, but there has to be a better way... Did not remember the advice about safe mode before I killed it, but my guess is that doing that will be like killing the process and probably would fix it for some time.
When I sample the process, I find the statistics:
Sort by top of stack, same collapsed (when >= 5):
_semwaitsignal 7945
semaphoretimedwait_signaltrap 4765
machmsgtrap 3871
kevent 1589
select$DARWIN_EXTSN 1589
0x51e4a 709

0x51e53 6
0xe365e 6
0x51e35 5
0x51e48 5
Sample analysis of process 370 written to file /dev/stdout
There has to be a logical explanation for this.
I have upgraded to 10.5.7 since the last time I saw this problem.

Phone application is using a lot of CPU
Hi everyone, I'm new here but I've been a blackberry user for several years with only a few minor issues.
Model: Curve 9300, provider- orange
This issue presented itself a week ago, seemingly unprompted by me. I didn't (intentionally) do a software update and I didn't download any new apps.
For the past week now, my blackberry's battery life has only been lasting about 6 hours at a time, maximum. Previously, it would go a full day or more without dying on me. I assumed this was just some rapid deterioration of the battery but when I did some googling today, I found that this is a common issue that a few people had in the summer of 2011. I have also noticed the little black timer appearing on the screen a lot at random points.
When I checked my CPU useage under the Application management section, it says my phone application has been in use for 16 hours of today, same for yesterday, however when I look back at the previous week, I see that I'd only used 20 hours in an entire week back when the phone's battery worked to a satisfactory level. I'm guessing this is what is draining my battery life and so buying a new battery won't resolve the issue. As I've been typing this, the phone useage has jumped up to 100% for no reason at all.
A few sources say to update my software but it says I have the newest version. (6.0 bundle 2534).
Sorry if I'm a little useless about this, I've never even knowingly updated the software before so I may take a little guiding through everything.
Thanks to anyone who can help me!Of course there could be something wrong in your code. Can you post an SSCCE that reproduces this behaviour?

X suddenly started using a lot of CPU (KDE 4.5)
I've been observing this weird issue since few days ago. When some more intensive drawing occurs on the screen (like scrolling through a web page, moving larger windows), KSysGuard shows both of my CPU's to be running at about 50% load. I use only few compositing effects in KWin and even if I disable compositing altogether the CPU usage won't drop.
There is another interesting issue regarding X I've noticed, possibly related. When playing a H264 encoded movie in MPlayer using VDPAU, X uses only few CPU ticks when compositing is disabled. When I enable compositing, X spikes up to about 70%.
I've been using KDE 4.5.0 since it hit testing, so it can't be caused by the update of KDE. KWIn itself doesn't seem to be using any extra CPU ticks, it's just the X which is problematic.
I'm kind of concerned because X definitely wasn't that CPU hungry only few days ago. I was running xorg-server 1.8 and nVidia 256.44 drivers and I updated to xorg-server 1.9 and nVidia 256.52-beta to see if it helps, it didn't:) I'm running custom kernel 2.6.35.4 with ck patchpack and the "desktop responsiveness patch". CPU is C2D T9550 2.66GHz, 4GB RAM and nVidia 9800M GTS.
Thanx for advices...Xorg 1.9 is in testing. You should expect weird behavior if you enable [testing]

I had closed out of all of my programs but heard the internal fans running so I checked the activity monitor. It shows syslog d as the top process using the CPU right now. I have no idea what that means.
I read a thread about the startup disk being full and how you can free up memory. I have an airport extreme so TimeCapsule is backing up everything. I do have a bunch of pictures on iPhoto on the laptop; could move those to another location but I'm a little gunshy. I know they are on the TimeCapsule but I would like to save them to a second place before deleting from laptop just to be sure. I went through several things yesterday and emptied trash, etc. I wasn't able to locate the hidden files that the thread about the startup disk being full was referencing --- they were talking about large emails that were causing processes to happen taking up the CPU.... I wasn't able to find out if that was the case for me.
Also I'm going to look into getting another 2MB of memory and installing it on the Macbook, so I can upgrade to the latest OS. Anyone have an idea if that is worth the $$$ over buying a new laptop? Or anyone have ideas as to where to buy memory, etc.
Any ideas - help!Go step by step and test.

Firefox using a lot of CPU (90%+ at times)
I am running firefox version 26.0 on a Macbook Pro OS X version 10.6.8 and I am running these extensions http://i.imgur.com/Co4NlGQ.png and http://i.imgur.com/Co4NlGQ.png . I am also using these plugins http://i.imgur.com/ZO55Lmq and http://i.imgur.com/IapcvJY and I have disabled all of the plugins, and that did not help as the CPU usage still fluctuated from about 10% usage all the way up to 100%.
I have checked to see if the plugins are up to date, and I updated one of them, but the newest Java Applet Plugin update only works with Maverick, which I do not have. Quicktime says that it's not up to date, but when I checked the software update on my Mac, it says that there are no updates available.
Image of the plugins that I checked to see if they were up to date http://i.imgur.com/fPuV8vD and http://i.imgur.com/7Uwp5vX and http://i.imgur.com/N0Cz9Tp aaand http://i.imgur.com/6FIwVTv .
Here is an image of my activity monitor (I had all plugins disabled here) http://i.imgur.com/j6xUudo . As you can see, the CPU usage is 99.6%, which is staggering considering I only opened a webpage (reddit) and was not running videos and the like. And here's an image of my activity monitor with more information http://imgur.com/zuY5iMu . The Real Mem can go all the way up the 2 GBs, which is a bit worrisome.
I have tried resetting Firefox, which didn't help, I have tried starting FF in safe mode, which didn't help, and I have even tried reinstalling FF, which didn't help. I also tried disabling "using hardware acceleration," restarted my computer, and the issue was not fixed. I used CCleaner to clear temporary files and the like, but it didn't do any good.
I really want to be able to use Firefox, because I'm starting to distrust Chrome, but if FF is using that much memory and CPU, I'm not sure I can continue using that browser.
I feel like I've hit dead ends on everything that I've tried, so I'm starting to give up hope. Does anyone help any idea or suggestion as to what I should try/ do?I just realized that I just gave the information for the browser without the extensions that I had installed. Here's the accurate Troubleshooting Information with the extensions:
Hopefully that is of some help.
