High CPU Usage #9

This might be an issue from within @andrehaveman's spotify-node-applescript, but thought it was appropriate to log here.

I left my machine playing Spotify for ~30 minutes after installing atom-spotify, and came back to find this:

It looked like a ton of the processes were being spawned and killed off again really quickly, and once I closed Atom everything settled back to normal again. Do you have any idea what could be causing this? Thanks :)

I like how each of those processes is using10,498,398,9?? percent of your CPU :smile:

madsmao commented 10 years ago

I have a similar issue. Even when not playing music, the plugin seems to keep launchservicesd running in the background at ~15% CPU usage at all times.

jwhitehorn commented 10 years ago

You know, I too have noticed launchservicesd using a considerable about of CPU.

I'm getting this issue too. If atom-spotify is enabled, Atom Helpers are running at 100% CPU usage. Running Atom 0.100.0, and atom-spotify 0.6.1 under Mac OS 10.9.3.

Decreasing the poll interval to 5 seconds instead of 1 made a huge difference on my MBP13", no annoying fan noise anymore when using this extension. Yes, it's not "instant" anymore, but does that really make that much of a difference? ;)
