      Hi all,

      pfSense 2.4.4 and I've noticed a sudden increase in CPU load in the last week.

      The graph below shows this:

      Any ideas what is going on would be appreciated.

      TIA

      Greg

      EDIT: Just noticed the high CPU started on the same day as a NAS failing on the LAN. Was replaced the same day with another. Coincidence??

      PfSense running on Qotom mini PC
      CPU N3150, 2 GB memory, 32 GB SSD & 2 Realtek Gb Ethernet ports.
      UniFi AC-Lite access point
