High CPU usage while idle

Sanity checks

• [X] I have run fig doctor in the affected terminal session
• [X] I have run fig restart and tested again (tell us if that fixed it)

Issue Details

I noticed high CPU usage from fig recently:

Tweeted about it and got a message saying to run fig doctor. I ran it and got this:

After running it, the cpu usage went down automatically. I'm not sure if it's because the doctor restarted fig, probably did.

It seems to be fixed now. But it used to come back randomly.

Where do you have the Fig.app installed and how did you install it?

[andreialecu]

I don't really remember how I installed it. Had it for a long time.

➜ where fig
/Users/andreialecu/.local/bin/fig
/usr/local/bin/fig
/Users/andreialecu/.fig/bin/fig
/Users/andreialecu/.local/bin/fig

Does this help?

[andreialecu]

It's not installed via homebrew, I don't see it in brew list. So it must've been via the .dmg file, before the homebrew formulae got created (I don't remember there being one)

[andreialecu]

What is fig-darwin-universal though? I don't see it running now.

[mschrage]

fig-darwin-universal is the internal name for the CLI/daemon (those other values are symlinks).

Can you run ls /Applications | grep Fig?

[andreialecu]

➜ ls /Applications | grep Fig
Fig.app
Figma.app

[mschrage]

If you run fig restart daemon, does the CPU usage reset?

[andreialecu]

After fig doctor made those fixes, I haven't seen this reoccur.

I also haven't seen fig-darwin-universal running at all anymore. It's just reported as fig.

So I believe fig-darwin-universal running may serve as a clue as to what was wrong here.

If relevant, while this was occurring, I found that I was logged out for some reason. When I initially ran fig doctor it asked me to fig login.

Still an issue. Intel mac, OSX 12.6.8. Fresh install using brew, fig doctor says everything is fine. Uninstalled and will try another time since this was first opened Sept 2022, but never looked in to, now almost a year later.
