High CPU Usage
I'm running SuperDuper on a Mac Mini Intel with Leopard. I have two backups scheduled to run overnight. Normally, I have no issue. However, if I happen to shut down my Mac before going to bed (thereby preventing the overnight backups), when I log on the next morning SuperDuper causes my CPU to go crazy. In the activity monitor, the SD applet is at the top of the list and solely responsible for 2/3 or more of the CPU.
Besides never shutting down the Mac at night, any ideas on how to prevent this from occurring? |

That's weird, because those cron jobs shouldn't run if the time had passed -- are you running something that "forces" cron tasks to execute when skipped?

I just noticed another thread which seems to involve the same (or a similar) issue: http://www.shirt-pocket.com/forums/s...ead.php?t=3837 Was the but referred to in that thread ever resolved? Last edited by davpel; 08-27-2008 at 11:25 PM. |

That's different, actually, because those were scheduled to run and the user was logged out at that time, not off.
Maybe Macaroni has settings that do this?

There's nothing readily apparent in the Macaroni settings, but I'll contact the Macaroni developer and report back. Unfortunately, my past experience with Macaroni's customer support does not make me hopeful that I will get an answer anytime soon!

It may list it as "perform system scheduled maintenance tasks" or something like that.
