Unusually High Core Usage with Upstream Docker Image for helm operator.

[r4rajat]

Bug Report

What did you do?

I am creating an helm based operator for Redhat Openshift. Earlier I was using the downstream image i.e registry.redhat.io/openshift4/ose-helm-operator:latest as my base image and my operator-controller-manager deployment was taking around 0.06-0.08 cores,

Then I updated my base image to the upstream image i.e quay.io/operator-framework/helm-operator:latest and the core usage for the same operator-controller-manager increased very much to like 0.8-0.9 cores.

What did you expect to see?

Usual core usage around 0.05-0.06

What did you see instead? Under which circumstances?

Very high core usage around 1

Possible Solution

Additional context

[varshaprasad96]

@r4rajat Could you specify what version (and SHA) you are referring to for the respective upstream and downstream latest tags?

Also, it would be super helpful if you could run a profiler and let us know what is actually consuming the memory. Due to a shortage of active maintainers, its maybe really difficult for us to pick this up. Any help in solving this would be greatly appreciated!
