I have been experiencing an issue where i get a “hub load is severe” and the zigbee network keeps crashing since the version previous to 2.3.4.133. the current version references a correction with an issue with zigbee, but the issue is continuing. i have a notification setup since a few years back when the hub load is severe and never in that time ran into the issue. I only utilize it for a reboot notification. well, now i get it all day long every 5 minutes or so. I look in the logs and can’t figure out what it causing the issue as nothing looks any different than before. anyone else getting this issue?
Can you PM me the hub id? I'll take a look at the engineering log.
I’m seeing similar on both my Hubs. C7 & C5. After about 24 hours I get the severe hub load in the UI. My C5 only has about 12 devices.
I checked the Devices and App logs and loads are low 1-2%.
Started after last firmware update as well. Hopefully they figure it out soon.
P.S. Just reverted back to 2.3.4.130 until a fix found.
That is awesome. I hope you named your hub Hal 9000.
Also got the “hub load is severe” error for the first time today too after upgrading the hub yesterday
Same here. Getting “hub load is severe” alerts that I hadn’t been getting before the update
No, But, it does sing a song when it reboots via fully kiosk plugin. It’s a song called “daisy”. It also lets me know it’s “feeling much better now” after it restarts. Either way. My kids are scared of it when it sings a song. I have no idea why​:man_shrugging:

i have all messages synced with the audio. it plays the sound clips from 2001 and the words sync on my iphone notification.
here’s a screenshot of the rule. simply insert delays for the notifications to make them sync with the audio.
Interesting, I have a C5 and C7 as well. However, I do not have any devices on the C5, I don’t even have the dongle plugged in. I use my C5 to simply run rules and other apps. I use the c7 for the zigbee and zwave. My C5 does not give me any errors, so it would seem that this is related to the wireless device connections, since my c5 has none as gives me no errors?
I received a “Hub Load is Severe” message for the first time this evening on .132, so I upgraded to .133, thinking that might have a fix for that - so I am not sure it is a .133 issue (it was not for me).
the issue started with mine with the previous version to 133. it continues with 133.
I'd made a separate post which I'll delete in a moment.....
[2.3.4.132]
I've a tile for Hub Info Manager. The two values for CPU are usually very low. This morning the larger figure cpuPct has climbed steadily. I thought it was far higher than usual when I saw it at 20 but it's now at 51.5. There's nothing going on in the logs and no app or device shows particularly high. Is there anything else I can check to find the cause?
Edit 71.25% now
88.25% now its about die a horrible death - RIP Hubitat
I've had to Shutdown
Hello
This is the same for me. Nothing has changed on my end. All device and app % loads are very low.
Feels like a runaway task of some sort, but you’re right - not seeing it in the stats. When you brought the hub back up did it perform normally or did it start climbing again. Regardless, you may want to ask @gopher.ny if he can look at the engineering logs to see if the answer is there.
I got a short term high memory usage alert on 132. Seems to have gone away by itself and then stayed away on 133 but it has to be said my system is small. Something like 32 zigbee bits and pieces and a RM4PRO that isn't doing anything as of yet.
Haven't had any high load messages or anything like that.
Is it possible that it's something to do with the upgrade system not shutting down properly on the last two updates 132/133 and just continuing to use up system resources? Might be an idea to look at what systems these updates affected and work out from there.
Since shutdown and re powering mine seems to have settled and gone right down to 0.8/2.5%. The only thing I can think that could’ve caused it….I updated an app via HPM (it was the energy monitor app by @anon47916022). When I tried to open the app it was hanging on the please wait page. I went back to apps, clicked the gear icon and deleted it. It may have been after that, that it went nuts
Okay, weird. I’ve been rebooting the hub since this issue started and it always came back within a few hours. Now, I rebooted it and it’s been about 10 hours and no issues anymore (Knock on wood). I guess that’s great, but it doesn’t explain the root cause?
Update… The one thing I changed was the IP address as I was changing the DHCP server to a PI-Hole. Anyone else with the issue, please try to change your IP address and see if that somehow stops the issue.
My conjecture is that there was a chang to how dns lookups occur as my network config was stable and suddenly with the last upgrade i had to change the static dns config to dhcp or the hub never registered with the.cloud service.
Just a guess though
Updated to 2.3.4.134 and issue continues. Has anyone else had luck with the update?
I need my system to be reliable so I’ve decided to wait until someone has confirmed it’s resolved. I’m back on 1.3.4.130 and it’s been fine so far.
