100% cpu

FF uses 100 + CPU on my MacBook, if not totally quickly updated. This, despite making all the suggested fixes, several times.

It got so bad that it overheats my Mac constantly, causing my fan go on uninterrupted full breath, even when he is in the background, so I basically have to stop using it.

Mozilla should take seriously and review this off-road browser.

When they can. Many other users also need help.

  • distnoted consume 100% cpu

    Every now and then my mbp will be completely insensitive because of a process called "distnoted" consume 100% cpu on a period of time.

    Why is this happening? Is this a virus? I have 16 GB of RAM + SSD - surely that should be record high enough to run OSX 10.11?

    The good news is that this is not a virus. This process was created by Apple and runs along the side to provide iTunes supported mobile devices. I would just try and force them to leave the application. http://www.groovypost.com/HOWTO/distnoted-exe-process-running-background-safe/

  • 35.0 Firefox uses 100% cpu on Mac Yosemite 10.10.1 then either breaks or needs force quit.

    I had this problem since installing Yosemite and using 34.0.5. I upgraded yesterday to 35.0 but still the same problem. Firefox will work happily for a while and then all of a sudden will use 100% cpu. I disabled all extensions and plug-ins and that made no difference. If I use Java (8-25), it will usually make it crash but not always.

    To make things worse, the accident report appears in Greek (which is considered in another question already).

    I am currently working with Safari 9.1.1 and whenever it is open it consumes 100% CPU and causes fans on my 13-inch MacBook Air to the race. For example, while describing the problem in Safari with only this tab open my CPU is 102.3% (33.2 MB memory). Besides the closure of the only open tab CPU usage remains high until I have completely quit the application. If I open the same page in another browser, the CPU of the other browser usage is much lower. Any ideas as to what is the cause and how it can be fixed will be very appreciated.

    Firefox uses 100% CPU when I connect eBay.

    Hi apdubois, it is useful to know that Flash is the problem but, as you point out, life without Flash is not very interactive.

    It is a standard orientation that addresses the most common reasons for problems of Flash in Firefox. I'm sure you've seen some of it before, but just in case:

    (1) make sure that all recorders/downloaders who interact with Flash media are as up-to-date as possible, or disable them temporarily.

    (2) disable graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox and Flash

    (A) in Firefox, uncheck the box here and restart:

    the button Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) > Options > advanced > General > "use hardware acceleration when available.

    (B) in Flash, see this article from Adobe technical support: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues

    (3) turn off protected mode (Windows Vista/7/8)

  • process of LSD causing 100% cpu and beachballing

  • Satellite Pro T130 - 14L: 100% CPU use of acpi.sys after changing the HDD to SSD

    Hello

    because I changed my for one SSD HARD drive and reinstalled Windows 7 with 64 bit on this subject, my system works frequently in 100% CPU utilization caused by kernel module acpi.sys, I discovered with process Explorer and confirmed by recording an ETL file.

    This problem occurs once an hour on average, sometimes after 10 minutes of functioning of the system and sometimes after two hours, no matter which programs are running and whether or not I is actively using the computer. When I noticed a hanging and see this 100% cpu core in the process Explorer window are currently in use, I always need to save my work (which may take a few minutes) and restart the computer.

    I could live with that, but it's pretty nasty. My bios is up to date (version 2.70), as well as my other drivers (no error and no virus found). In other forums I've read, these problems could be avoided by changing the energy registers something Windows settings as never go to sleep of the SSD, but it works in my case as I disabled all energy saving options in Windows and I still have this problem.

    Is there maybe an update of the unofficial bios that could solve this problem?
    I read in another forum, that an unofficial bios update Dell fixed a similar problem on a Dell computer.

    Can someone help me solve this problem please?

    Details of process Explorer:
    The wire with TID 160 and the start address:

    ACPI. SYS + 0X1AF7C

    suddenly starts using 100% CPU and does not stop until you restart.
    Similar problem as in this forum for a Dell PC:
    https://social.technet.Microsoft.com...UM=w7itproperf

    Unlike the Dell problem, there is no appropriate-updated bios for me, could you help me if you could tell me how to stop the kernel module (if it starts hanging or even before). Then I could at least avoid frequent restarts.

  • Satellite P200 - 1EE 100% CPU with Toshiba Flash Cards usage

    Resource monitor shows 100% CPU usage constantly in recent weeks (no problem for the first 6 months that I have owned the machine) with 85 to 99% of my CPU used on 2 entries each shown as "Toshiba Flash Cards", no idea why and how I can sort this out as it slows everything down? Thank you very much

    Andy

    Hello

    The utility of Toshiba Flash Cards is a part of the Vista Toshiba value added package and it controls the functionality of buttons FN.
    Kody said already that it is advisable to reinstall the VAP to check if it would prevent the high utilization of the processor.

    You should also clean the operating system using the CCLeaner. After PPV remove you must run the CCLeaner to ensure that all of the VAP files have been deleted.

    Good bye

  • Btrfs-cleaning frequently stuck at 100% CPU after put 6.4.0 to level

    Given that I have improved my RN102 to 6.4.0 last night I often struggle to reach the admin interface, and my laptop was reported not being able to join Time Machine.

    When I connect by ssh and use 'top', I see that btrfs-cleaner is stuck at 100% CPU. This can last up to 10 minutes at a time. I only installed about 12 hours ago, and the process of btrfs-cleaner has already more than 85 minutes of CPU time, which is 20 times more than the process of the second long, readynasd which is 4 minutes.

    After a while, btrfs-cleaner falls to 0% CPU and I can access the NAS normally.

    My question: is it normal to have this excessive load of btrfs-cleaner so frequently? Y at - it no configuration setting which affect this behavior. I never noticed this problem under the previous version 6.2.5.

    See you soon,.

    Joachim

    Where it's important, my NAS is equipped with 2 x 4 TB drives in a RAID0 configuration with 40% in use.

    It seems that I found a way to get rid of hanging btrfs-cleaning: after turning off the quota

    Btrfs quota disable/data

    Btrfs-cleaner never appear again (top).

    (After startup, I've usually had a minute to publish the command before btrfs-cleaner spawn and prevented the command answer.)

    I did not intentionally quota - I guess that it is enabled by default.

    Good luck

    HansW

    PS: Maybe the problem is known by Netgear - in their 'FAQ on recent firmware 6.4.0' (see the link at the top of the page) we are talking about «...» "This is probably due to the ReadyNAS was conducting an audit of quota.

    Some sites also describe problems with quota and btrfs (forum Rockstor), other sites quoting quota support in experimental btrfs (but these may be updated).

    I did some tests deepened after diabling quota like that--I'm happy that I have can see my files again...

    Use Autoruns to understand this all starts when your computer's / when you log in.  Look for whatever it is you do not know using Google (or ask here.)  You can hopefully figure out if there are things from when your computer does (or connect) you don't not need and then configure them (through their own built-in mechanisms is the preferred method) so they do not - start using your resources without reason.

    You can download and use Process Explorer to see exactly what is taking your time processor/CPU and memory.  This can help you to identify applications that you might want to consider alternatives for and get rid of all together.

    More information are among the volunteers S. Stanley, hope this helps.

    I think first we should know something on your system, then you should run some respectable malware removal tools and then only start troubleshooting of any problems (unless you just want to start guessing and try things).

    Because the Microsoft Answers forum does not have any kind of information system request when a new question is asked, we know almost nothing about your system.  Not knowing the basic information a problem prolongs the frustration and the agony of these issues.

    Thank you MS Answers, allowing the resolution of simple problems as frustrating and a lot of time as possible.

    Provide information on your system, the better you can:

    What is your system brand and model?

    What is your Internet browser and version?

    Your system's disks IDE or SATA drives?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

    The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

    You have a genuine XP installation CD bootable, which is the same Service as your installed Service Pack (this is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

    If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

    No matter what you use to antivirus/antimalware protection please follow these steps:

    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs at:
    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
    They can be uninstalled later if you wish.
  • Svchost.exe (netsvcs) 100% cpu - update of Windows *.256 cause - update forever checks as does Defender.

    Hi, I got 100% usage cpu choking my system Toshiba laptop L300 Vista 32-bit, cause - (netsvcs) svhost.exe in time real trouble was unknown and tried everything has failed. So I did a complete new installation and fully updated to SP2 then the next update and it required me to download the latest update to terminant.256. My system is now unusable with constantly check and update svchost.exe using 100% cpu. All is well until I start to WU and I restore prior to this Windows Update Agent... Also if I close just the update it is still short in the background using 100% cpu by svchost.exe (ntsvcs) until I have manually stop the service.

    I have:

    Disabled Windows Firewall and Avast antivirus.

    I tried all the things as well in safe mode.

    Installed costs.

    Followed the instructions found on the net

    In offline mode, downloaded and installed the latest update which is the same as that.

    Whenever I have restore before this update, it works very well. The download of the update even if I have restore and install only the off-line version, it cripples even with 100% cpu and without end of audit. He made also Defender without end of audit.
