After the latest Sonoma upgrade the CPU Fan is on and the process diskimagesiod usage goes to 130%

I was reading emails and noticed that the CPU fans were on high. I ran Activity Monitor and noticed that the process diskimagesiod is taking lots of CPU. I don't remember this process running at all. After Activity Monitor had run for 5 minutes the CPU load and fans went back to normal.


Sonoma 14.4.1

My Mac Book Pro (2019) has a 2TB SSD with 1.36TB Free. I also have 64GB of RAM with 26GB free.

Malwarebytes paid 5.1.2


Is there a log file that I could capture?

I would simply ignore a one off you do not necessarily recognize; a glitch or otherwise...

There are no options, and no user interaction required.
