Unusable High CPU Load on Windows and Linux #44

Open Himan2001 opened 6 years ago

Himan2001 commented 6 years ago

By using latest daemons, precompiled Windows-QT and self compiled Linux-Version from github i still have unusual very high cpu utilisation:

core2quad/windows: 3 cores at 30% load avg. core2duo/linux: 2 cores at >98% load continous, most time 1 core on 100%

The memory consumption instead is in normal range. I checked with staking on and off, and there is NO difference in the load!

For me, it looks like, that staking is always enabled from the start. Please can someone check, why there is a so high load, when "doing nothing" ?

I have the continous load, no matter if new blocks received or not. So using the daemon for staking with other daemons on the same linux machine is useless at the moment, because ember-daemon consumes nearly all available resources. For a blockchain with under 200.000 blocks and a relative long block time, this is way to much!

add:

Today at morning i checked my linux-daemon and the machine was nearly unresponsible for me. The swap-memory was eaten up nearly completly. Eventualy a unfixed memory leak ?

On my windows-machine i found a NEW (cosmetic?) issue:

Howering with the mouse over the Mining-Symbol, the Network Weight shows always 0! Crosschecking with "getstatus" on linux and windows shows correct Network Weight. Eventualy an "update"-bug on the qt-code/refreshing ?

After coldstarting the wallet on windows, in the first minutes the Network Weight is showed correctly. After a few minutes it goes to 0 and be always 0 the entire session. The PoS-Blocks attempts instead are correctly updated in the GUI.

+1 i see it spike to over 80% of a new gen I5
