PMSet - out of control; launches, relaunches; Monterey Current - can't figure out how to diagnose
MBP late 2018. i9 + eGPU.Monterey, 12.3.1
I'm stumped here. PMset (power management) is off the charts for the last 3+ months.
At random times (and OFTEN) it's running at 90%+ of the CPU. It'll launch, run high, terminate and relaunch.
I've removed everything, did an SMC and the PRAM resets.
Then into Recovery mode, disk utility and did a "First Aid" on the SSD, Container and Data sections.
I'm stumped here. It seems to be launching, hitting faults, quitting and relaunching.
Any ideas?Advice?
What I want to avoid is the wiping of the OS back to scratch.
Is there a way via the Console or Activity monitor can I can get some insight on what is causing this problem? IT
