High CPU usage. #135
Comments
Thanks for the help. So this was when the app was idling. Or was it doing anything specific. Running a call, displaying a gif or processing incoming messages? |
When i start the app is taking a lot of ram and cpu and after that displaying a gif. |
I checked again, it's on idle but gif are present in the conversations. Hope it helps. |
is 7-10% cpu load during a call on i7-2600 considered normal? |
I have noticed high CPU usage on Ubuntu 14.04. I was doing a video call and it was using nearly 50% of my CPU. |
Hi! |
Update: Suddenly the process "Wire helper" stops to "eat up" the CPU… |
I also see Wire using ~15% CPU when it is idling. However this bug reproduces only when certain conversations are open. In other words, select one conversation, switch to another app and do something else for a minute, then observe the CPU usage of Wire process and notice that it is constantly ~15%. Select another conversation, do something else for a minute and observe 0% CPU usage of Wire process. I don't see any obvious connection between the conversations that do and don't produce high CPU usage:
And as someone else pointed out, close Wire window and CPU usage drops to 0%, for any conversation. |
Yeah, I have to revise my last post. It started again using constantly about 15% CPU usage. But as I got no feedback, I switched now to an app called Franz. Which can handle a lot more messengers and with no uncertain CPU usage. |
@nfind you may want to monitor your CPU usage further, I don't think using Franz will solve the issue. In fact I don't think this is a I can actually reproduce this in Google Chrome. I think this is a severe issue, I was wondering lately why the battery on my laptop degraded so quickly, until I stumbled on this bug. I can say now that it is true, my battery lives considerably longer with having Wire window closed. |
First thanks for all the input and comment. I finally had some time to debug. There are several issues that (might) cause this:
Reworking the image loading a bit, so i will try to knock down these issue. |
Awesome that you may found some things that could cause this issue! Some observations from me, running 10.12.3 with Wire 2.11.2686: Another observation: The bigger the wire window the higher the CPU usage is for me. On a 1080p screen with a maximised Wire window it stays at around 20-25%. |
Same here (Ubuntu 16.04, Wire 2.11.2685). Only some conversation windows cause 20-25% CPU usage (no GIFs or animations). When the main window is closed, the CPU usage is below 2-3%. |
I've just noticed a massive CPU usage during calls. I'm using Kubuntu 16.10 and the AppImage v2.11.2722. When making a video call I got 90% CPU usage cannot use a browser anymore, for example. The person which I called had a similar high usage, using Windows 10. I think we both have an intel i5-4300U CPU. We did not send any GIFs. When idling -without any calling going on- everything seems to be fine. //edit: we did write some text though, so it could be a dublicate of #407. I'll try to make a call again, soon. |
Can confirm the issues with wire helper. Wire helper constantly uses 30% cpu (as reported by activity monitor on macOS) while the wire app is in foreground. Would be really nice if this could be fixed. |
I was trying to investigate a little bit, here's what I found:
Notice the difference in the something called Google search tells me that Does anyone have any suggestions on how to dig deeper and learn what actually is happening during those 2 out of 10 seconds? By the way, if someone is interested but cannot reproduce locally, I'm open to a screensharing session 😉 |
Figured it out, it is a The bug is filed as wireapp/wire-webapp#1112, let's hope we get a quick hotfix - I can't stand seeing my laptop's battery dying so quickly because of Wire. |
Maxim, great analysis! I can confirm that |
Can confirm as well. This fixes the issue. Awesome analysis maxim! |
Thanks everyone for reporting! Closing this since the issue was fixed in wireapp/wire-webapp#1115 and will be included in the next release. 🙂 Feel free to reopen if the issue persists. |
If I leave wire running for some time, it does the same. Fans start whining and I have to restart wire to fix it. This is on macOS 10.15.4 with wire 3.18.3728 |
Hi,
I started using the app yesterday and noticed a really high cpu usage with the 2.11.2666 build on arch linux. This issue might be linked with the macOS battery ones : #122
