MarkoMaximus 0 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Hi, Since I have my new MacPro, Evernote seems to use a lot of unnecessary CPU, around 27% constantly when not using it...so my battery life is being shortened by 50% or so...you can understand that this is a big problem. Our whole office is using Evernote, but they don't experience the same. Went to the Apple Store and they said it was the software, I uninstalled and reinstalled - nothing helped. So can someone or Evernote help me with this issue - I need Evernote, but battery as well :-) Thanks in advance, Marko MacPro 15" Retina, Mid 2012 Processor 2.3 GHz Intel Core i7 Memory 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1024 MB Software OS X 10.8.2 (12C2034) Link to comment
Level 5* jefito 5,589 Posted March 12, 2013 Level 5* Share Posted March 12, 2013 Is Evernote syncing while this is going on? Link to comment
Level 5* chirmer 567 Posted March 12, 2013 Level 5* Share Posted March 12, 2013 I sadly have the same problem... I synced, waited five minutes (my sync time set at 15 min. intervals), and then checked... http://chir.me/f63r Same device as well (mostly) — MacBook Pro - Retina, Mid 2012 Processor 2.3 GHz Intel Core i7 Memory 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1024 MB Software OS X 10.8.2 (12C3012) Link to comment
MarkoMaximus 0 Posted March 12, 2013 Author Share Posted March 12, 2013 No, it's not syncing. I am working with 10 other people on different notebooks, but time is set to sync every 15 minutes, so shouldn't be doing anything.Thing is that people with older Macs don't experience the same. Checked Pro's, iMacs and Airs in our office....really needs to be fixed, have to be on battery all the time. Link to comment
Level 5* jefito 5,589 Posted March 12, 2013 Level 5* Share Posted March 12, 2013 You should check your activity log, to see whether Evernote is up to something while you are experiencing the high CPU values. Link to comment
MarkoMaximus 0 Posted March 12, 2013 Author Share Posted March 12, 2013 Checked few times; spiking from 22-30% without any activity visible in the log. It syncs like it should every 15 min and that takes up about 4-5 secs, so has to be something else...I believe I'm not the only one, chirmer posted here as well experiencing the same issue. Apple said it was software related, but never had troubles with Evernote this way, since my new MacPro (on Flash Drive by the way). Hope you find a solution. Best,Marko Link to comment

Level 5 Jackolicious 808 Posted May 17, 2013 Level 5 Share Posted May 17, 2013 There should be a fix coming in our next public release. Let us know here if it doesn't improve and we'll gather more information. Thanks for posting! Link to comment
xxxjanxxx2 0 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Hi I experienced it right after I've updated to the latest version. The previous version to that was fine. Also, how do we know if the update is out? Link to comment
mooni 0 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 I have the same problem. According to my cpu records, cpu usage of evernote is over 100%When I checked my activity log of evernote, I found this:Reindexing the previous documentI thought evernote.com modifies its analysis algorithm. When changes are detected, evernote uses high cpu resources.I just say: wait. Link to comment
