unknown process "OSLogService" constantly using 100% percent CPU
[[solved -- see comments]] I've recently noticed that my battery has been dying pretty quickly and my laptop is getting supper hot even though I'm doing "regular" work. I noticed a process called `OSLogService` that's using 100% CPU constantly. I couldn't find much information about this process online. Found [this reddit post](https://www.reddit.com/r/MacOS/comments/1fwjhom/here_it_is_macos_1501/lsi264p/) claiming something similar. The process runs constantly and restarts even if I kill it. It runs even if I'm not actively running any process, although I have some corporate mandatory software always running on my machine, such as Netskope' VPN and Cyberark EPM. I have a strong suspicion on these two fellas actually, as this process keeps running and restarting even if I quit every other running app. Running `ps -o pid,ppid,comm -p {PID}` I get ``` PID PPID COMM 8957 1 /System/Library/Frameworks/OSLog.framework/Versions/A/XPCServices/OSLogService.xpc/Contents/MacOS/OSLogService ``` I'm not sure how to debug this. I was just wondering if anyone had a similar issue recently. This started out of nowhere roughly 15 days ago, even before I upgraded to sequoia, so I'm really unsure if this is a macOS related issue (which is probably not true) or related to some software running on my machine. **Details:** - Device: MacBook Pro, 14-inch, Nov 2023 - macOS: 15.0 (24A335)4
