      My Netgate 2100 always seems to be at close to or at 100%. How do I correctly diagnose the culprit, as it can take up to 20sec to load the dashboard, as thus I assume everything else is struggling too.

      It is fully updated, and the only added package that might be actually doing anything is HAproxy, which I have never got to work! I have had other packages installed in the past (pfblocker etc) but they are uninstalled. Could any of the disused packages' data be causing the CPU usage? It's just me and a few low bandwidth services here so actual local loads. Thanks

        Can't access that screenshot. But try either looking at Diag > System Activity or (better) check at the command command line using top -HaSP whilst not having the webgui open at all.

        You may be seeing loading from the dashboard widgets themselves if you're checking CPU usage there.
