High CPU usage while doing nothing

Yaak uses 100% CPU on launch and stays there while completely idol.

It appears similiar to this issue: https://yaak.app/feedback/posts/high-cpu-usage-while-doing-nothing

and this issue: https://yaak.app/feedback/posts/linux-app-consistently-uses-100-cpu-when-idle

except that there is no sync folder or git repo assosiate with this install. It is simply a fresh import of an Insomnia export.

Your screenshot shows the experimental CEF build (yaak-cef). Does the regular Linux build also sit at 100% CPU, and which Yaak version are you on?

morrica OP

This was installed from the .deb package from the Yaak download page. Is there another .deb package available for the regular Linux build?

The version installed was 2026.8.1

morrica OP

Sorry. You meant the AppImage version. No. The AppImage build does not show high CPU usage.
