A short while ago I wrote that Dropbox was hogging the resources on my Macbook Pro, a Mini and the MacPro, even though the MacPro could still function the other two were rendered almost unusable as there was nothing left for any other program.
I upgraded to the latest version of Dropbox and I thought that cured the problem, and it does for awhile. Watching processing activity the Dropbox will increase to over 100%, on the Laptop it even causes the fans to kick in. If I reboot and Dropbox then reduces to almost nothing but over time it again become a total hog. Don’t know why I am the only one having this problem but I had to go back to Apple’s iCloud. Seems the problem I had before was not waiting for the file to be fully copied until I closed the iCloud window. (Dropbox doesn’t have this requirement) If I leave it open I have had NO issues for several weeks now. Thought I would bring this story home by relaying my results…..indeed I find strange anomalies….
