Twice today I noticed something:
When I was on my MB pro mid 2010 (core 2 duo); upgraded to Mavericks a few days ago.
Today (both times on the net) -- for some reason I noticed the computer got hot (around 180 degrees farenheit) and the fan crept up to as high as 3200 RPM (maybe even higher at times). I can hear the fan running. Normal rpm is around 1990--2000 rpm. I was doing nothing out of the ordinary; no extra software added (except I stat pro to tell me the the stats of the machine). As well I couldn't get any pages to load.
I sat there for a minute or two, thinking that if I shut off all the programs I was using it would go away, but it didn't.
The user CPU usage was around 55%, Idle was around 40%, System was around 3% and something called "Nice" was 0% (not sure what that is).
The cpu Temp is around 180, The heatsink B temperature gets up to around 146 or so.
I thought it might be that I was on a movie site, but the first time this happened I wasn't. In both cases I restarted or shut of off the machine and restarted it, and the problem went away.
Like I said, I don't have any downloaded software except NetNanny; maybe that's the problem, but when I first installed it I didn't have this problem. Anyone else experience this and have any advice?
I like Mavericks and there's no more support for SL, so I don't want to go back to it.
