i have an intel cpu with speedstep... without the ckb installed the cpu goes up and down dynamically from 800Mhz to 4GHz to fulfill apps needs
when ckb is installed, cpu runs always at max speed, wasting power and generating heat.
its not that the cpu load is too high..
with ckb-daemon running and the ckb app closed, animations dont work, macro keys dont work.. etc... not sure whats ckb-daemon for.
the problem i see is that there is no way to have ckb installed at all in osx and keep power saving feature working.. even when not using the app or the keyboard...
there should be a way to disable the ckb-daemon or have a low power mode that supports all the features without the animations (this would be the ideal case)
in the attached pic you can see what happens as soon as the ckb is installed.
