Hello @mailinglists35

Thank you for bringing this to our attention
I have forwarded the information to the development team for further investigation

Hello @mailinglists35!

Please answer the question

Is the “login item” setting for AdGuard mini enabled or disabled on your device?

[MineGene]

@IaroslavKhvorostenko I'm also experiencing this, and my login item is set to enabled.

Hello @MineGene @mailinglists35

In order to investigate the issue we'll need AG Mini logs. Please do the following:

1. Go to AG Mini Setting and enable Debug logging.

2. Reproduce the problem and remember the time of reproducing.

3. Click Export logs on the Settings tab.
   If you can't export the logs you can get them in ~/Library/Group Containers/TC3Q7MAJXF.com.adguard.mac/Library/Logs/com.adguard.safari.AdGuard/

4. Send this file to qa@adguard.com:

   • include [agmini] keyword and ISSUE_NUMBER in the subject of your email
   • specify the exact time when the issue occurred

[MineGene]

@IaroslavKhvorostenko understood.

It would be useful to know what a healthy rate of wake ups are.

Would you be able to provide a healthy wake up range, and what would be deemed excessive by AdGuard Mini's standards?

Hello @MineGene

We're currently looking into this issue to get a clearer picture of what the expected numbers should be. Our goal is to reduce these values, as there are definitely too many wake-ups happening right now.

To give you an idea, anything over 150 wake-ups while in standby mode is excessive.

Providing your logs will give us valuable data and really help us sort this out much faster.

[MineGene]

@IaroslavKhvorostenko debug logs have been sent.

Closely monitoring the idle wake ups of all other processes on my machine, I'd even call 150 excessive in standby.

Every background process on my machine has under 10 idle wake ups, with only agmini, kernel_task, Safari, Mail, and the Activity Monitor using more as they're currently active. agmini tends to idle at a constant 77-80, which definitely should not be the case.

Below is a screenshot of my Activity Monitor showing idle wake ups ranked in descending order, with agmini being the highlighted blue process.
