The same is happening for me. It's been a persistent problem for several app updates, but I've finally grown tired of it and am trying to find a solution. I will mount my SFTP drives, and when I first come in to work the next day, I'll see Mountain Duck using 600% CPU until I kill it and remount. I submitted a log file to support via e-mail but am adding my "me too" here. |

Another culprit can be the Index Files option set in Preferences → Sync for volumes with a large folder structure with a remote server where on cannot determine if contents of folders has changed. This applies to object storage such as S3. When connected to SFTP volumes, make sure there are no symbolic links that point to a parent or working directory causing folders to be indexed recursively. When all the above does not apply please send a thread dump to support:

Please find whatever is causing this. It renders Mountain Duck unusable on my Macbook M2 Max. I followed every tip that I can find, still goes haywire after a certain period of usage. Things I tried already:
It starts of quietly but after some usage of any of the shares the CPU usage goes through the roof. |
