i3-focusedwindow using too much cpu and overheating device. #413

Closed Ayush-pbh closed 2 years ago

Ayush-pbh commented 3 years ago

Expected behavior

Should Run properly.

Actual behavior

Runs as expected but this causes my cpu load to go to 50% on all 4 cores. and the temperature goes to 95 - 104. With nothing but a terminal running. Also when i comment it out, every thing goes to normal as it was.

Hello, did you ever find a solution to this? I'm having the same problem.

No man, eventually I figured out that removing the focused window block solves the issue. So be it. Then i shifted to polybar. Suggest you the same.
