Over the last few months, this has become my experience using Roll20.  My processor stays at 50% total the entire time that I am viewing the Roll20 tab. I thought it was my computer being slow, so I rented a cloud server with a GPU, designed for gaming.  This has an 8 core Xeon processor, 12 gigs of RAM and an Nvidia Quadro Pro GPU. This was what happens when I am running one session of Roll20 as a GM and one as an observer.  This is without dynamic lighting, roll20 video, I have gotten the same results with all api scripts disabled and all userscripts disabled.  I can reproduce these results anytime. This has been going on for months - this is the worst it has been.

Hi Dr. Frank, Do you notice this behavior regardless of which game you are in? Does it still occur in a new game? Could you also provide the name of a game where you notice this pop up (if it is only one or a few). Could you provide a screenshot of your google task manager? (Shift + Esc or Menu >> More Tools >> Task Manager). Also, for both your system and the cloud server, could you provide the operating system version, chrome version.

After posting this, I started setting up a new game just to test it. So far it is not causing any errors, even after adding all of my usual API's. - Now - it won't reproduce the error, even in the game I was running last night.  I disabled "Enable animated graphics" in the My Settings tab.  I'm not turning back on - not even for science.

All systems look normal.  You fixed it!

Well I hope systems remain nominal! I will go ahead and mark this resolved-- if it crops up again feel free to submit a new thread referencing this one :)
