Q: BUG in process suhelperd: over-released legacy external boost assertions (1 total, 1 external, 0 legacy-external)

Hello,

 

I just formatted my MacBook Pro and installed a fresh installation of Yosemite. I always have this bug which makes my log file full:

 

BUG in process suhelperd[193]: over-released legacy external boost assertions (1 total, 1 external, 0 legacy-external)

 

I can give you a hint that it's maybe about Software Updater Helper.. but dunno how to solve it.

 

Thanks,

JF

MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2013), OS X Yosemite (10.10)

    Same problem here... Having kernel panics (GPU related) several times a day. This message appears repeatedly in the console and is the last thing before the restart.

    Seems we have lot of issues in 10.10. Today I posted an issue with Magic Mouse as well as Apple wireless Keyboard in the bluetooth section, while I'm having a lag in both

    i had the same problem and solved it by removing my mac out of the active directory domain which he was joined in.

    still the same log entry, but no hangups in the middle of the startup process.

    Yes, I have the same issue on a clean install of Yosemite on my Mac Mini 2012...I notice that in trying to resolve an issue with SystemUI Server not responding or burning up the CPU.

    Left me with a black screen and the beachball of death, with the HD chugging away doing FSM-knows-what.  I bit the bullet and force-rebooted it; everything seems to be OK -- but given the choice, I'd rather not.

     

    Yosemite, latest and greatest (cough), on a Mid 2007 iMac.

    Interesting that we all get different numbers in suhelperd[nnn]

     

    Google search shows a lot of people with this problem.

    Same problem here.  10.10 riddled with errors.  Apple new OSx quickly becoming somhting to avoid.. feels like a beta instead of a public release....

    Just had a second kernel panic within few hours. Getting scary unstable.

     

    Console log was filled with 100+ lines of:

     

    kernel[0]: BUG in process suhelperd[243]: over-released legacy external boost assertions (1 total, 1 external, 0 legacy-external)

     

    Sound looped, screen froze and Mac went completely unresponsive. Had to power it down hard to get it to restart.

    I would expect that this is the process ID, and therefore it will usually always be different.
