'Launchd' Mac + WebTools in console CPU spikes

Okay, so I'm on a macbook of 2014 pro environment. I have never had problems with it since I got it. But, I noticed that lately her fans did turn full throttle while it is inactive. Out of curiosity, I checked the console and the activity monitor to see if something weird was going on. And of course, I "launchd" in the activity monitor from 50% to 90% of cpu usage cpu. In addition to this, a process called "WebTools" (it looks like malware) continues to try to run, spamming the console with this:

Someone help me please to get rid of this. Thank you.

Well, it's resolved. I tracked the WebTools file, and that seemed to work.

  • Service DcomLaunch CPU Spikes

    Having a lot of follow-up of my E5440 Latitude due to fan problems, I spotted the large CPU spikes every 9 seconds (no applications open or network traffic):

    I can see that it is caused by a group of services "DcomLaunch.  My old laptop with the same operating system, software, anti-virus (Avast) does not show these spikes.

    Looking at similar problems reported on the net, it was down to a third-party service/driver or malware but I did a full scan and it always happens in Mode safe:

    Also, I went through disabling drivers and services as much as possible, but no luck.  Seems that it must be something to do with the power management?

  • Satellite L755 - PSK2YE - upgrade of Windows 8 - CPU spikes driven at the start of app

    Hello

    Recently, I upgraded my OS Windows 8 Pro.
    Since then, when I open an application or a new Web tab which requires some effort from shockwave plugin or gpu process, I noticed a spike cpu which lasts 3-9 seconds.

    These spikes increase the temperature of the cpu from 50 ° c to 70 ° c.
    But when the spike is complete, gets back to its usual temperature (50 ° c).

    I have tried almost everything I read, but so far nothing has solved the problem. I tried the clean boot, safemode (network option checked), active the windows updates manual, at the request of maintenance at a specific time, disabled an option that allows atheros controller turn the unit off when the laptop is in sleep mode.

    My drivers are all up to date, so I don't really know what's going on, so I would be sincerely grateful for your help.

    PS: Three months ago, I sent my laptop to a toshiba centre clean the flue.
    I use balanced energy mode, but the same problem occurs when I use high performance one.

    However in power saving mode there is no ears at all. I used to see the same behavior when I reduced the maximum processor state to 95%.

    > However in power saving mode, there are at all without crampons. I used to see the same behavior when I reduced the maximum processor state to 95%.

    The spikes appear due to stress CPU.
    I noticed something similar to running some applications Chrome for a few seconds, the CPU would be stressed to the point where the fans begin to run with the highest performance. After about 5-10 seconds, CPU load goes down and the fans run slower.

    I guess that's a result of bad programming of some applications such as constraints of software the CPU too

  • Slow computer - CPU spikes

    Dell Dimension 3000 Desktop, Windows XP - SP3.   My computer was slow substantially lately so I researched the potential causes.  Performed several scans for viruses and malware with none detected.  Ran a msconfig to see if something was running at startup I knew - again nothing unexpected.  Then I looked in the Windows Task Manager.  With nothing else running - it's nothing listed in the Applications tab and do not touch the keyboard or the mouse, when look at the CPU usage, I noticed there's a spike to nearly 60% for 5 seconds of every minute.  Is this normal, or should I look for more strong something running in the background?  Suggested next steps?

    This has been resolved in the end like a malware problem.

  • Regular CPU spikes every 15 seconds with USB 2.0 audio, fix, but refuses to install.

    When streaming audio via the audio interface USB 2.0 Audio Class Compliant on Windows 7 Professional 64 bit update, there's regular CPU usage spikes up to 100% every 15 seconds, sometimes amounting to audio dropouts. Utility LatencyMon v6.5 reports that huge amount of CPU time is spent inside the usbport.sys driver whenever there are any audio stream of isochronous USB happening. I know that there is a supposed to be available to target exactly this problem - https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/981214 fix - but the fix refuses to install, probably because the fix itself is quite old and does not seem to recognize the latest versions of the drivers usb*.sys on any instance to date of Windows 7.

    I have tested and confirmed this problem on two different mobile-class workstation laptops from different manufacturers, both based on Intel 7 series / C216 QM77 chipset (Panther Point) and using the integrated chipset USB host controllers to connect to the audio interface (a 18i20 of Focusrite Scarlett). One of the laptops has EHCI and controllers xHCI routed to different physical ports, the other laptop has all the physical ports connected to xHCI; It might be interesting to note that the problem seems identical to the audio interface is connected to EHCI or xHCI. All other possible causes that usbport.sys were eliminated by a careful configuration and the measure, i.e. There is no limitation, no turbo CPU, no CPU C-State, not of processor HyperThreading, no food, no virtual memory paging management event, not even any SMI (System Management interrupt) passes, everything boils down to usbport.sys hogging the CPU.

    It would also be interesting to note that according to Intel, there are a bunch of bugs known to host USB controller Series 7 / C216 chipsets, one can find an Errata section detailed from page 15 of the document Spec update - http://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/specification-updates/7-series-chipset-pch-spec-update.pdf

    Could this problem hogging CPU actually come from bugs in the hardware host controller USB drive operating system driver nuts? Or it comes from a bug unrelated in the OS driver? And what happened to the existing of the fix, why he refuses to install the operating system to date and how is the same old problem suddenly reappeared on automatically updating Windows 7 systems?

    It is in any event, that my most sincere and humblest hold like a paying customer for a hotfix update fix this if possible, one that is truly committed to settle. Without corrective work, Windows 7 machines are quite useless for all serious audio work. I also feel that I speak not only for me but for all members of the global computer audio community who are trying to use Windows 7 with audio USB.

    Just upgraded my Windows 7 Professional for Windows 10 Pro and the issue hogging CPU is now gone - no pics no CPU more, more dropouts no audio USB. (It would still be nice to have a fix for Windows 7 someday, too)

  • Windows 7 use of the CPU Spike!

    I use Windows 7 SP1. There is a CPU usage spike suddenly after using the PC after some time. It happens even in the State of Hibernation. When its fine in hibernation, but several times he wake spikes and continues until the reboot. After the reboot, the use is back to normal. Manager tasks shows the tip down and the machine slows down but does not show processes running non-use and even process idle is normal. Its a Windows 7 specific problem because previously I had XP and ran very well.

    Please solve this problem someone very annoying sound.

  • No console logging

    Hello

    Can I get the meaning for the cmd

    No console logging

    No monitor loggin

    Waiting for answer

    The first message disables logging for connection to the console. If you are connected to the device via a connection to the console, all messages are sent to the screen. This can be also seem like a safety risk (leaving him on) with a connection to open console and containing this enabled command can potentially CPU spike and cause a denial of service.

    The second command disables recording of messages to the lines of terminal with monitor on. For example, you telnet to the device and to see not available to vty messages, type you the command from terminal monitor. Allows you to see the messages you are also missing in a normal telnet session. Messages sent to the session of the monitor are at the same level of safety as those sent to the console, so many engineers assume that they are turning to a console connection that they are not.

  • High CPU use InDesign CC on Macbook Pro

    Recently, InDesign CC on my Mac started periodically fortification CPU usage without reason decernible. When sitting idle without documentation open, ID uses anywhere between 100 to 190% of CPU. When you use it with a document open, this will draw up to 200-290%. This, of course, creates a lot of heat that sting fans. The spikes occur with regularity, usually every 10 minutes.

    It is very worrying when my laptop fans run at full speed for hours at a time when the workload must be low. The fact that he uses as much time CPU when sitting idle is clearly a problem.
