One core cpu at 100%

Hello,
i noticed that running Code or Creator at a certain point the task Kit “eats” a core of my cpu with a 100% load.
Running the top command (running on a linux host) and pressing shift+H I can see the responsible thread:


what can I do to solve this problem?

Hi there @spiker! I informed the development team about this issue. I will post back as soon as I hear back from them.

Thankyou Wendy,
very kind of you: for any info I am available.

Hi,
Any solutions to this?

I also have this problem.
ubuntu 20.04
5950x
3090ti
Iv tried 3 different nvidia drivers that all have the same problem. Including the lasted proprietary driver and the omniverse recommended driver.

I am sorry, I received no news…
did you see the same task occupying 100% of 1 core CPU?
At this moment I updated the driver to the 520.61.05 version
