I've started to use guard to monitor my testing changes, but is using so much cpu (between 80%~95% of CPU). I'm using it in conjuction with all these guard gems
gem "guard-rspec"
gem 'guard-livereload'
gem 'guard-rails-assets'
gem 'guard-bundler'
I though maybe is just my laptop, but other coworkers use them in their new laptops(newer than mine) and is using about 60~70% of cpu all the time. I've tried to just run guard without all the other gems but the result is the same.
Is there a way to configure it and minimize their cpu usage?
Yes, you can tweak Guard to be more efficient by
On my 2012 27" iMac watching a large Rails project with many active Guard plugins, the Guard process takes 0.01% of CPU time when listening to file changes.
