Why Enpass take so much CPU time and send/receive so much traffic?

Featured Replies

I am a big fan of Enpass in China. However, I find Enpass take so much CPU time and send/receive so much traffic through internet.

As a password manager app, I believe it do not need use CPU so often, or it do not need to send traffic so much.

@luye,

Glad you like our product. 

Enpass is an offline password manager, however, it requires an internet connection in these scenarios:

  • downloading website icons for items saved in vault.
  • syncing data with cloud.
  • while registering an account via email and fetching the account info from our server

For the CPU usage, please note Enpass needs some memory allocation for the app to work properly. All the related apps need a memory of around 60 MB. If you are observing anything more than that, please let me know.

It is reasonable that Enpass need some CPU usage and requires some internet connection. My concern is that Enpass uses CPU and network significantly more than necessary.

@luye,

The CPU usage might differ based on the Windows configuration you are using on your device. I have tried testing the app on my device and everything seems to be working alright. Please refer to the attached screenshot. 

We will still be monitoring this continuously on other devices and systems to see for any anomalies. I hope this helps!
