No, that's not what I mean. You won't see multiple legacyScreenSaver processes, but you should note that each time you start and stop your screensaver, you should see the memory and cpu (depending on how much
I see, yes that seems to be the case , at least for the memory part. Over time, the process uses over 2 GB. (No CPU, though)
Using something like those XXXXXXXXXXX will make it easier to filter them in Console.app. You should see the starts, but not the stops.
Right. I think I noticed that, too. But that does not explain, why new settings will not become persistent, does it? I mean, when I do [defaults_ setObject: monitor_user_prefs forKey: displayName_]; the Mac *could* write the new settings into persistent memory/disk ... Or is there a dedicated command that would force macOS to write the settings? There is the -synchronize method, but the docs say it's not necessary any more.
because legacyScreenSaver is just weird.
That whole business brings up the question: should we abandon legacyScreenSaver? If I understand correctly, there is a new framework, something to do with wallpapers? I mean, the name "legacyScreenSaver" suggest, that this framework will be going away anyways at some point ... What are your thoughts?
