So, I had issues with my Start9 always being super hot (88C) and fan spinning loudly 24/7…
Turns out this was the Mempool app. Raises CPU to constantly 25% and increases temp from 50C to 88C basically immediately.
What the hell is mempool.space doing (even when I’m not looking tat the UI) that is so CPU heavy?
