Qsirch causes the CPU and hard drive to overheat. I found that even after Qsirch had finished building its index, it kept occupying CPU resources and continuously fetching and sending out data. After disabling it, the issue of excessive resource usage stopped. Has anyone else experienced this?
So what makes you think it is causing the CPU and hard drive to overheat? I use QSirch all the time and my CPU and hard drives have never gotten excessively hot.
QSirch does use a lot of resources to build the index and occasionally, it will use resources in the course of normal operations. It is not secretly grabbing private data.
If you don’t need to use it then disable it. It is sometimes quite a resource hog. But if you need it, then don’t worry. Your NAS has plenty of margin to allow things to operate just fine.
