Massive CPU spikes since the last 2 days, caused by Steam Client Webhelper

Looking like this -> https://imgur.com/SnxVqHh

happening irregularly, every now and then, both on desktop and ingame. Sucks.

Anyone else having noticed that or is something wrong on my end? I didn't change anything though and don't experience any other issues on my system. CPU: i5 13400

i want to be able to cap my steam client usage.... simple... ok thats me done...

I literally searched through Github earlier today, to see if someone wrote a little tool to limit steam or put it in its place, resource wise. But there isn't anything really.

Ofc one could use process lasso or an equivalent, to bind Steam to certain cores or limit overall usage...but honestly -> MEH!

if its not fixed on steam by a person being paid to fix things on steam then again i say...

snap of out it - moonstruck.


we all need to send photos of a computers on fire caused by steam
client to those Gamers Nexus people on youtube

with titles like steam burning down your house...

I wonder what would happen if I'd actually contact steam. I assume, as it has become a trend in modern society, they won't take the responsibility for it and blame, as always, someone else. My hardware, maybe a driver, maybe the router, maybe the OS. But owning the problem? Owning the problem, when you offer a product, your costumers pay you and the product causes problems? No way! We can't do that.

I also told this would come...haha!

Seems like Steam has begun rendering shaders in realtime now instead of like in the past using a fixed shader and just fetching that pre-calculated shader.

And this costs a lot of cpu-time.
