Godot editor using ~70% cpu. (macOS) Latest build as of 10-23-2017 #12366

ismyhc · 2017-10-24T02:03:27Z

macOS Sierra
10.12.6 (16G29)
MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013)
2.4 GHz Intel Core i5
8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Intel Iris 1536 MB

I've compiled for OSX as the docs list.

user@host:~/godot$ scons platform=osx
user@host:~/godot$ cp -r misc/dist/osx_tools.app ./Godot.app
user@host:~/godot$ mkdir -p Godot.app/Contents/MacOS
user@host:~/godot$ cp bin/godot.osx.opt.tools.64 Godot.app/Contents/MacOS/Godot
user@host:~/godot$ chmod +x Godot.app/Contents/MacOS/Godot

Editor uses around 70% cpu.

I can confirm that at least on Windows x64, the current master@4396712 idles at 0-1% with a project open in the editor. Seems to be Mac OS X specific?

marcelofg55 · 2017-10-24T12:33:11Z

I tested it with OS X Yosemite and for me it idles at 1-2%.
Edit: Tested with the attached project.

Zylann · 2017-10-24T12:39:20Z

@ismyhc is there any message in the system console?

ismyhc · 2017-10-24T13:10:13Z

@Zylann no messages in the console. I think its related to the project I attached. I Just opened a new project and the editor hovers around 6-8 %. Could you try loading the project I attached? Its very possible I may have changed some setting that may be causing the issue. Im going to recreate the project from scratch. Its very small.

bruvzg · 2017-10-24T13:31:02Z

macOS 10.13 (17A405): 2-3% idle with attached project opened.

ismyhc · 2017-10-24T13:53:50Z

@bruvzg Unfortunately Im not in a position to upgrade to High Sierra quite yet. :( Im trying to figure out what it is about the project that is causing the issue.

eon-s · 2017-10-25T02:36:39Z

This is for master, right? there are other reports of apparently the same issue on 2.1 #8766

ismyhc · 2017-10-25T12:30:20Z

@eon-s yes, this is for master as of 2 days ago. Im going to try and do more testing today.

ismyhc · 2017-10-25T17:14:26Z

Is this output correct?

OpenGL ES 3.0 Renderer: Intel Iris OpenGL Engine
GLES3: max ubo light: 409
GLES3: max ubo reflections: 455, ubo size: 144
ARVR: Registered interface: Native mobile

Should my mac laptop be using OpenGL ES 3.0? I wouldn't expect be using OpenGL ES.

mhilbrunner · 2017-10-25T17:28:01Z

I think Godot 3.0 always uses OpenGL ES 3.0, yes.

bruvzg · 2017-10-25T17:33:31Z

@ismyhc It is correct, same renderer use OpenGL 3.0+ on desktop platforms and GL ES 3.0 on mobile/web.

ismyhc · 2017-10-25T17:52:34Z

@mhilbrunner @bruvzg ah, okay. Well I just started a brand new project. One main scene with nothing in it, one scene which is just a node with script attached that draws rect and boom, back up to ~70% cpu. Deleted all the scenes, and still stays at ~70%. Im baffled as to what is causing this.

bruvzg · 2017-10-25T19:10:29Z

@ismyhc Try using profiler: Xcode > Open Developer Tool > Instruments > Time Profiler, maybe it will give some additional information.

ismyhc · 2017-10-25T20:35:50Z

@bruvzg Okay, I did upgrade to High Sierra, but still same issue. I opened up Time Profiler and heres a screenshot.

This seems like the start of it: RasterizerCanvasGLES3::_canvas_item_render_commands(RasterizerCanvas::Item*, RasterizerCanvas::Item*, bool&)

ismyhc · 2017-10-26T12:38:17Z

Just an FYI. Alpha 1 doesn't have this problem. Im going to start backtracking master to see if I can determine when the problem starts.

akien-mga · 2017-10-26T12:40:03Z

Before attempting a bisect, make sure to build alpha 1 (f55211a) locally to confirm that it's not affected by this issue, as it's possible that official binaries work fine but that you self-compiled ones are problematic.

bruvzg · 2017-10-26T13:08:03Z

This seems like the start of it:
RasterizerCanvasGLES3::_canvas_item_render_commands

Maybe v-sync is not working (it is enabled by default). Related to #12355?

reduz · 2017-10-26T13:23:33Z

Is the spinning wheel in Godot top right corner spinning when you see this cpu usage, even if you do nothing?

ismyhc · 2017-10-26T13:26:43Z

@reduz yes, spinning wheel is always spinning. Im building alpha-1 as @akien-mga suggested right now to see if the issue is happening from my local build.

ismyhc · 2017-10-26T13:42:01Z

I can confirm building alpha 1 (f55211a) locally works as expected. No cpu issues.
As of Sep 27, and commit 4f39ce3 the cpu issues DO exist.

ismyhc · 2017-10-26T14:39:47Z

So I just noticed something. When clicking the spinner, the option "Update Always" is checked. If i set this to "Update Changes", the cpu usage hovers around 8% - 12%. Im not sure if this is the fix, but it does help.

reduz · 2017-10-26T16:08:43Z

That is not a bug, it's a feature...

ismyhc · 2017-10-26T19:40:02Z

@reduz I think what happened was that I not knowing what it meant, clicked on it and it popped up a alert that said it was a deprecated setting. I must have assumed since the alert popped up that the change didn't occur so I never thought twice about it, but in fact it was changed to (update always).

Anyways, mostly just confusion on my part. Feel free to close this ticket. :)

akien-mga · 2017-10-26T19:57:52Z

Well no, the 70% CPU usage is not a feature :) What @reduz was referring to is the Update Always / Update Changes and its impact on CPU usage, which is expected. But 8%-12% CPU usage in Update Changes and 70% in Update Always is a bug.

eon-s · 2017-10-27T02:33:51Z

Wait, the popup that talks about the deprecated function actually turns on the deprecated function?

Why not disable it at all if should not be used anymore?

akien-mga · 2017-10-27T05:48:18Z

Why not disable it at all if should not be used anymore?

Because it's still needed in some cases due to bugs, so we need to be able to enable it to debug and fix bugs.

Zylann · 2017-10-27T09:12:05Z

@eon-s And this #11030

eon-s · 2017-10-27T16:17:01Z

@akien-mga ah, ok, but the popup message is kind of confusing, like meaning the option is not working, maybe a "deprecated" or "for testing only" text on the menu may be better.

now spinner keeps rotating and editor uses 50% cpu usage on my machine on idle in Update changes setting. 😕

Same on macOS.

editor uses 4~5% CPU now.

Is the spinning wheel spinning while this happens?

alright, but unless you update the spinner and set it to update changes, then tell me what's going on (if it's spinning or not), it's difficult to help. Also you have VSync enabled?

Closing as there were no updates since reduz's questions a year ago.

I'm testing Godot 3.2.3.stable.official on Mac Book Pro with macOS Catalina 10.15.7 and on some projects the Spinner wheel spins all the time in all in all scenes/viewports even on Script editor. (it is set to Update when Changed)
I started a new project and now it works correctly so it seems the issue gets stuck per-project. I'm not sure what to check on the project that doesn't work properly to figure out what it might be.
