All Hubs show "Hub Load is Severe"

Good morning,

I have 3 Hubitat Hubs, 1 C5 2 C7, Have a big old house and a single one wasn't doing the job.

A couple months ago started getting this error. now several updates later still getting.

I tried going back to older firmware and seamed to solve.

Also issue with most of my buttons not working. Button set to "Toggle" light on & off. Worked great until recent updates now will not work. Logs show sending signal but device not turning off/on. I have tried removing and re-pairing the switches/buttons and the bulbs and still no go. The devices are only 10-15 feet max from Hub.

I am very frustrated with this whole issues. Made switch from Smaartthings because got local control, but this is getting too much.

Solutions??

Have you tried reverting the platform back to the working version? I had to revert back to 2.3.3.140 because of issues.

I believe this started around v2.3.4.130 but not positive. The current 2.3.4.134 is supposed to have a fix for it, but many of us were still getting in.

I fell back to 2.3.3.138 (I didn't have 2.3.3.140) and not having the issue. Waiting for a new release with a real fix

Be patient. You made the right move from ST to HE. They are working on it and temporarily falling back to a previous version works just fine for now.

2.3.4.138 is out and address' most of those issue I think.

Still running heavy load on .138 even after I put the hub in the corner for a 5 minute time out. C-7 that is. C-5 perfect.

Do you have homekit integration running on it?

Nope.

What do your logs say? App stats, device stats?

Devices: 4m 12s / 5h 10m 37s total (1.4%)
Local apps: 32m 13s / 5h 10m 27s total (10.4%)

Normally "" local is around 1%

It was almost locked up this morning when I got up around 3am. Took 3 minutes for automation so I gave it a time out. The local is mostly driven by api requests.

Not to state the obvious but this seems rather porcine.

At this point I would temporarily disable the maker api going to the external dashboard and see what happenes... Which external dash are you using? If you establish it's the dash, start removing stuff that updates constantly from he to the dash and see how it goes.

Dashboard for Android. The hub is still moving rather slow.

Did you reboot it after disabling the maker api?

So far just cloud side not local yet.

I would turn the whole thing off for testing then start things up slowly

Load has dropped by .3% from 10.2 to 9.9 in just a few minutes with cloud off.

93.2 busy, it's getting railed..

Coming down. It is normally around 1%. Something new with the way the app interacts with HE and the update.

I would like to think that a 10% load would not tax the hub much but it brings it to a crawl. I have had the same api issue several times in the past during beta but never quite to this extreme. I had sent the author of the dashboard app questions regarding elevated load in the past during past beta testing.
