Canary 79.0.299.0 on Mac

Since the release of 79.0.299.0 I am experiencing high CPU usage when Edge is running whether or not I am using the bowser.  I can leave it with the home page and it will consume 200% of my CPU within a minute or so.  If I leave it long enough my entire system will slow to a crawl until have to quit or force quit the browser.

 

  • Hi,
    does mac always measure CPU usage from 1% to 200% instead of 1% to 100% ?

      HotCakeX On my Mac I can see a CPU utilization from 0% to 400% since I have a 4 core i7 processor.  

      • Oh so if my CPU had 16 cores, I would get a 1600% utilization? that seems like it doesn't count the threads otherwise you would get 800% utilization.
        anyway, are you also using macOS Catalina?
