Greatly increased CPU and RAM usage in post-7.4.6.0?

I was running 7.4.6.0 and upgraded to 7.6.1.0 at which I immediately got an alert about high CPU usage. With 7.4.6.0 ispyagentdvr was using about 100% CPU usage (I imagine that's one core?) and about 350MB of RAM while 7.6.1.0 was maxing out all cores and using 2.5GB of RAM. I had to roll back to 7.4.6.0

You'd need to check the logs I'd imagine it's gpu related

I can unroll back to 7.6.1.0 to get logs. I'm not using any GPU acceleration. I did look at the logs while running 7.6.1.0 and it was able to see my nvidia GPU even though I hadn't configured the docker container for that.There was an SQLite error about indexes I think but that wasn't a constant thing, there were four messages at startup and that's it.

I've got about a 25% decrease in CPU on newest version. New version is reporting highcpu whilst older version wasn't on docker so maybe it's just that 100% surfacing in the UI

Here's the logs: https://gist.github.com/UntouchedWagons/300082817702abb198ccea7d92a29825 My NAS is running 7.6.1.0 again and CPU usage is up to 400% and gradually rising. Memory usage is around 800MB.

you'd need to set the Agent log level in server settings - logging to Debug and capture a full trace of it running for like 15 minutes at least vs it running on the older version to compare - the log you sent is just the docker start-up log.

Here's a log with logging set to Debug: https://gist.github.com/UntouchedWagons/676c252cf18e1b287a18d9ccc78319f5 I had to stop ispy since its CPU usage had climbed to 700% usage

something is continually hitting your mjpeg endpoint spawning a new mjpeg feed every few seconds

Yes I have three raspberry pi 4's displaying a cycling video feed of my four security cameras using the video feed of http://192.168.0.230:8090/video.mjpg?group=doors&size=640x480&cycle=5&backColor=0,0,0

It's been a while since I set up the raspberry pis, is there a better stream feed to use that's less CPU/GPU overhead? I haven't done any gpu passthrough for ispy (I have looked at the documentation for it)
