How can I block the network request, if I can't block the CPU? I have little snitch but I don't know what rule or what address I need to block. In the task manager, it shows that while CPU is maximum network activity is also at max, so obviously, it's 'calling home' and sending whatever. Any other apps I can control the CPU usage so it's not a problem.įFS, someone please help, I can't stand this anymore. This is really annoying and I only have this issue because of Chrome. The problem is that my battery health is around 50% and because of high CPU usage for long periods the battery can't handle it and the MacBook goes back into sleep and I can't bring it on unless I plug the power adapter even if it's charged > 90%. So when I open up the computer again after standby Chrome starts to use 100% CPU by itself without me doing anything.
