Logic2 consumes much CPU when not used

If I have the Logic2 application running but not using it (not even the active window) it still consumes ~8 % CPU.

If I disconnect the USB cable, it still consumes ~8% CPU. This is not a big problem but I use a laptop so it drains the battery.

I use Logic-2.4.40-linux-x64.

@jonas.aberg Sorry for the trouble with that!

I ran a quick test on Ubuntu 26.04 LTS on an Intel i5 7200U (2 cores / 4 threads)

  • No USB devices connected
  • Logic version 2.4.46
    Downloads | Saleae
  • Try demo Logic device > selected [DEMO] Logic 8
  • Software idle from there (i.e. no recording running)
  • I’m getting ~4-5% Processor usage, which drops to 0% occasionally (Resources > Processes)

Can you share your PC specs and try Logic 2.4.46 above as well? Also, can you share what Linux distro you are running?
