30% CPU high usage - per one day

[jarda]

I've been testing Plyxon 1.0.1.660 on Linux Mint 20.2, and it continually consumes more and more CPU power.

Interestingly, I just launch Plyxon without connecting to any database or interacting with the menu. I don’t do anything at all—just start the program.
Initially, Plyxon starts at 2% CPU usage, but then it keeps growing and growing, and after five hours, it reaches 20% CPU.

I created a script that monitors Plyxon's CPU usage every minute. Over time, it's clear that the CPU load keeps increasing.

What exactly is Plyxon doing? Why does a program that performs no actions consume 1 hour and 20 minutes of CPU time over five hours, reaching an 18% CPU load that steadily increases?

Attached are the script I used to measure CPU load and the log it generated.

Thanks for the log! We'll investigate. Are there any documents opened in Plyxon when CPU increases? Or does this also happen when no documents are opened, with just an empty IDE?

The only thing I do is run the Plyxon program, and then I don't touch it. Plyxon doesn't have any document windows open, and it's not connected to any database. However, over time, its CPU load increases at a fairly high rate.

I conducted an experiment. On VMware, I created a new computer and installed the latest Linux Mint Xfce environment from this link:https://www.linuxmint.com/edition.php?id=320

I installed the latest version of Plyxon by extracting the archive. I launched Plyxon and didn't connect it anywhere or do anything with it. didn't even open any document windows.

Attached, I am sending a log showing how, from 18:53 to 21:28, Plyxon used up 17 minutes of CPU time and is constantly consuming 11% CPU at 21:28. This CPU load continues to increase over time.

Thanks. We have fixed this for the next patch release, which will be available shortly.

Awesome! I can't wait!
