uiDivStats Hi CPU Usage, won't settle

[El Mariachi]

Hi Guys,

My RT-AX88U experiences an unsettled CPU when UIDivstats is installed. The cores interpolate at 100% each at a reasonably consistent rhythm. This does not happen to my other locations setup. The only difference that site has is that it uses a different USB stick. Could this be the cause?

The USB stick I am using on the problematic setup is a Toshiba USB3.0 16GB thing. The other setup which works has a basic Sandisk Cruzer USB3.0 16gb stick.

TOP shows nothing specific which would explain it.

Try enabling cache mode in uiDivStats. This mitigates slow r/w on usb

Thanks @Jack Yaz . How long after installation and enabling caching should I reasonably expect to wait before it should settle?

once caching is on, it should drop straight away (unless there's any pending non-cache r/w operations going on).
can you post the output of below command please?

ps | grep -i uidivstats

Took about 5 minutes to settle. Good stuff mate, thank you. Almost as if you wrote the script

Here is the output as requested:

16091 admin 3476 S {taildnstotal-ca} /bin/sh /jffs/addons/uiDivStats.d/
16102 admin 3476 S {taildnstotal-ca} /bin/sh /jffs/addons/uiDivStats.d/

that looks about right glad it settled, probably pending writes to the USB finishing up before caching kicks in (which only writes once every 5mins storing data in memory/tmpfs)
