AppDaemon
CPU usage increases a lot after migrating from 4.4.2 to 4.5.8
What happened?
I moved from appdeamon from 4.4.2 to 4.5.8 and I was suprised this docker is the one with more CPU usage comparing with the rest. I filtered by that one and I get this increment of CPU and also Ram. But the big impact it's the CPU usage, I normally run about 60 typical dockers with a cpu usage of 4-5% and now it's about 10% becasue of that issue:
Also my dashboard is not oppening anymore: http://192.168.0.160:5050/ I get ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE
Version

Anything else?
No response
fixed with setting production_mode: true in my appdaemon.yaml. But this didn't happen in my 4.4.2, it will be usefull to specify it more clear.
Yes, we are aware that non-production modes is responsible for most of the AppDaemon load and have plans to optimize it. Having said that, even with the rewrite it shouldn't have been significantly worse.
Thanks for reporting - I will move this to an enhancement for now, because your graphs make a useful data point.
FWIW I have also seen this after upgrading to 4.5.8. I noticed my raspberry pi fan coming on more often than usual and my CPU charts show a similar increase following the upgrade. Something is definitely more aggressive with non-production mode in the new version
