High CPU load after upgrade to 5.0.2 on NUC

[vflegel]

Hello,
I just updated my Openelec running on a NUC D54250WYK from 5.0.1 to 5.0.2.
While looking if everything was still working fine I noticed that the GUI reported a constant CPU load of ~30% while the system was idle. This was not the case under 5.0.1.
Logging into the shell I noticed that 'top' reported indeed a continuous load of around 30% which was caused by the 'kodi' process. A brief look at the different log files did not show any information about what is going on.
I was wondering if anybody noticed something similar on their NUC system running Openelec 5.0.2 or if anybody has some tips on how to identify the cause of the CPU load (as my favorite Linux debugging tools are not necessarily available in Openelec)?

Kind regards,

Volker

Hi vflegel,

Just confirming your findings. I have an Intel NUC N2820 Dual-Core Celeron and can confirm that after the upgrade to anything above 5.0.1, there is consistently high CPU load (around 30%) during idle. I haven't done extensive testing but this doesn't seem to affect performance on my units as the UI is very responsive during idle/playback.

Thanks,
