maximum utilization of the network interface

I have had a network interface (wi-fi (en0)) constantly booting for one month.

If you block the process, the CPU is under 100%.

The process “idleassetsd” is used.

Constant activity comes from sylvan.apple.com

I read on the Internet that this resource is needed to upload photos.

I have already downloaded more than 100 gigabytes.

It seems to me that wallpapers can't weigh that much.


Please help to solve the problem.

Thank you!

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 15.2

The en0 network interface is your Wi-Fi. It will always be on and up as long as you have your wifi set to On. An interface is not a process. These things aren't necessarily linked or if they are it's unlikely the conclusions you are making about them correctly identify the problem. Have you used Activity Monitor to determine all this? If not do so and determine what other files, processes, etc that this is all linked to.
