@absolutep thank you for measuring and reporting!
Could you possible leave Tribler running idle for few minutes or even an hour and re-measure?
Are you using multiple harddisks, SSD storage, or anything special?

I have been running Tribler continuously for the past 4 hours, only after which I raised this issue.

No, nothing just normal laptop.

Thanks for reporting! This issue is hot on our radar and one of the main priorities for 8.1.

To make sure that we're not discussing the same issue in different issues, I would like to keep the discussion on this topic inside of the earlier issue #8272 and I'll close this one.
