Reply to Big Sur powerd process constant CPU 100%
In Germany we received update 3 today and 1962 is gone!!! After closing the lid and reopening the MAcBook I only have this " [0] wake at 08/10/2022 16:15:00 by 'com.apple.alarm.user-visible-com.apple.calaccessd.alarmEngine.alarm.name'", which I did not set. But "powerd" seems to be gone. Let's hope so!!!! So far the MacBook seems to be back to normal...

Do you guys also have the effect, that despite "Power saving" is turned OFF, the screen goes black after a while. When this happens, "wake at 04/12/62" comes back. So it seems, that the power management is somehow the culprit here. As far as I can tell, a lot of options in the power management panel habe not been implemented (yet?).

This fixes it, but for me, not permanently! :-( Open Terminal STEP 2- Run this command: pmset -g sched (See if there are any listed events with dates and times. These are likely the culprits) STEP 3 Run this command: sudo -i (This should enable you to run commands as the root user. The next line should appear beginning with “ root# “ to confirm this. STEP 4 Run this command: pmset schedule cancelall (This command should wipe all scheduled power events away) pmset repeat cancel (This command should wipe all REPEAT power events away) STEP 5 Run the command from STEP 2 again. If there were scheduled processes before, they should be gone now. Also, the Powerd process should be using little to no CPU.

"powerd" is behaving nicely as of yesterday, but: There where two new events today, that I did not set. One for x.x.22 and one for x.x.62. Doesn't make sense... But as long as "powerd" is behaving, I guess I can live with it. Followed your video again and cleaned out the tasks AGAIN, let's see, if they come back again.
