Staking has become very resource intensive for me. I think because too few people are staking now.

I have been staking for a while and was probably a core part of the network (usually have about 16 connections)....but now it seems my wallet tries to solve blocks all the time causing 100% CPU load, all the time. My VPS provider eventually kills my node for using too much CPU.

Staking now seems to use as much energy as POW mining Sad

Anyone else having this issue? I get much more coins than I would expect....but given UVCs current market value of $0 I can't justify 100% CPU usage 24x7 to keep staking...

Maybe I'll pick up a raspberry pi where 100%cpu will be cheap...but for now I guess my node will be going dark...

Partially fixed this by combining inputs: I had over 40,000 inputs from staking for these past months. That is why it was staking every second and using 100%cpu. I moved the funds around to get everything into 1 input, so it is rarely staking now. However, it is still using 40-50% CPU which seems like a bug because it is not trying to solve any blocks for at least 12 more hours....not sure what it is doing. lock the wallet and it uses 0.3%CPU. Other coins I stake like $arch use very little CPU when in between stakes. But at least we are down from 100%cpu to 45%cpu...

That's good, My cpu sits around 65%
