I left it running all night and all today. When I woke up it was fine, but when I got home from class it was doing it again. I had the logs running on verbosity level 8, and using a rough estimate from the amount of CPU time firefly.exe has used, I think the time frame below is roughly about when it started. I cut out all of the “unknown meta code” stuff that happens all the time, and there’s a lot more of similar logs after this as the day progressed. I’m also on a college network, and I’m starting to have a weird suspicion that this is happening perhaps as a result of people using mytunes or ourtunes or something similar to attempt to download the music off me.

A file leecher like mytunes pulling down flacs as fast as possible will definitely peg your cpu.

That’s likely your culprit.
