Huge reads every 10 minutes. #1783

Hi, simplewall does ~200mb reads at 10min intervals for as long as it's running, which prevents idling. Any idea what it's doing?

I have the same issue. I see the same behavior (~200 MB/s reads every 10 minutes) via Task Manager. Along with that the 'System' process (C:\Windows\System32\ntoskrnl.exe) starts using disk with about 10-50% of Simplewall's process' disk read speeds and also takes 20-60% of the whole CPU usage. There's no predictable pattern behind it, but it more often happens in times of a high load like a game. But maybe that's where I just notice it better. This combined heavily lags my gaming performance, especially of the games installed on the system drive.

Another thing that might matter is that I am using Nekoray in Tun mode and qBittorrent. It happens significantly less often when I close qBittorrent.

@vertuk same answer

I'm sorry but I have no idea what you are trying to say by that. There's no option "Monitor app changes" in any menus I open.
