Hi Dan,

I'm running the same setup (MX 19.2/TDE 14.0.9) and while I have 38 
kworker/event_xyz processes runing, all but one are at 0.0 %CPU.  That one is 
at 0.3 %CPU.  A different one has 12s TIME.

My uptime is 6 days with ~420 total processes and I have only been in TDE.

So, yeah, 30% CPU seems really odd.  Assuming you're not on a Pentium II or 
something ;)

One of the dev's will have to answer further (as I don't myself know what 
kworkers truly do other than ‘system stuff’).

Hope the data point helps,
Michael
