Thank you for the hint!
I’ve had similar symptoms after upgrading from 22.10 to 23.04
- CPU usage for Eve (
tq\bin64\exefile.exe
) process had rise up to 600% (6 cores system) - usage got bumped after some actions inside interface, like visiting skills page, trading system or in-game store. - Same top of calls for strace
Setup:
- Ubuntu 23.10 (pre release), kernel 6.3.0-7-generic
- nvidia-driver-535, version 535.104.05-0ubuntu2
- Steam + Proton 7.0-6
I’ve got stable CPU usage only after disabling both - esync + fsync. Here is the command template for Steam:
PROTON_NO_FSYNC=1 PROTON_NO_ESYNC=1 %command%
Disabling just fsync was not enough for my setup.
Regarding Lutris:
- tried Lutris with lutris-GE-Proton8-13
- only disabling both esync and fsync gave me stable CPU usage
