Excessive CPU and Disk from Intercheck

I launch the backup program CrashPlan and Intercheck consumes almost 100% of one core on my dual core iMac for a period of about 2 minutes. At the end of 2 minutes the CrashPlan dialog appears. At the same time, read-ins/sec went through the roof.

Before installing SAV CrashPlan launched within 15 seconds.

  • It is independent of the actual backup. The actual backup is done by a daemon process.

    What I am referring to is the UI process which runs independent of the backup daemon.

    Whenever I launch the CrashPlan UI Intercheck jumps up to 100% CPU and the read ins/sec go into overdrive. So this has nothing whatsoever to do with the actual backup. The UI process simply allows settings to be changed and to report back on what the backup is doing.

    Once the two minutes are up and the UI dialog is present Intercheck quiesces. This is all about just getting the UI process launched. This is very bad.
