It only does this when I'm copying files over. Right now I'm copying about 26TBs of data over ethernet and it is taking a while. Once I stop it or it finishes the copy, the CPU goes to about nothing, unless I'm doing something else. So it has something to do with the copy process. Since the LVs are encrypted, I think a good bit of it is related to that. I read somewhere that new CPUs have a instruction set that makes encryption really efficient. Mine doesn't have that, that I'm aware of anyway. It's yet another reason for me building a newer rig. One thing I've noticed, as my drive space increases, this seems to use more CPU. One thing I hope to do, have a system that does nothing but torrent stuff. Right now, I have a lot of stuff running on this rig. For its age, it's a good size load at times. I'd like to put some of that load on another machine. I'm looking at that AMD Ryzen 9 5900X which I've been told will run circles around this old FX-8350. I also need more memory too. I sometimes have to close Firefox to free up some memory especially during some compiles. I'm working on it. Takes time tho. Dale :-) :-)
