The only case when the CPU usage comes down is when I use only a laptop screen or only 1 FHD monitor or only 1 4K monitor. If I exit both of them then the system will still be sluggish, but I don't know which application consumes those resources. If I exit both chrome and docker, and if I have Iterm (where I run htop) or activity monitor, then those will occupy all the resource. but, then chrome will take up all the CPU resource, if I exit chrome and kept docker, then CPU resource will be taken by docker. Say I exit docker, then overall CPU usage will stay the same. Chrome has only 2 tabs, Gmail and Facebook when I took the screenshot.My docker has only one small instance of Nginx which I only use for local testing purpose.macOS: Launch Activity Monitor, go to the CPU tab, and check whether CEPHtmlEngine Helper process is causing high CPU usage. If you think you are affected by this issue, check the following. > Amazon basics USB C- HDMI converter for FHD Some users may experience high CPU usage after launching Adobe products. ❾XACTLY what adapters and cables are you using to connect your external display?ĮXACTLY what adapters and cables are you using to connect your external display? What Kernel Extensions have been added to your system to result in such an enormous amount of CPU being swallowed up? > if you want better performance, consider Quitting some of these Applications.īut the real story is in the SYSTEM portion of the use here, where as much as 75-ish percent of your total CPU power is disappearing. You have an amazingly large number of resource hog Applications running at the same time. In total these account for 176.8 percent of a CPU, or 22 to 25 percent of all cpu power. If we look at the tp consumers of USER cpu cycles (over 1 percent each) they are:
