High CPU usage on macOS

[kingloui4556]

I'm having trouble with sync 2.4.4 on macOS, it seems that a markdown file in one of my git repos is making some trouble.
CPU usage is at 104% on macOS 10.12.4. When I delete the markdown file the CPU usage drops to normal levels.

The log file is growing to 50 mb in a few seconds with the md file present.

There was another bugreport on this forum, suggesting that it has something to to with the filecontent/filename but my problem seems to be a bit different: if I replace the filecontents it doesn't help but if I rename the file to something else the problem is gone. When I change the name back to README.md the CPU usage starts rising back to 104%.

This is an excerpt of the log:

Hi!

Could you please send us logs to investigate your issue?

unfortunately I dont have the log file anymore and now it seems I can not replicate the issue. I seems I solved it by renaming the file end replacing the content multiple times.

If the bug occurs again I will post the logs here. As I remember there wasn't happening anything else in the log file beside the entries I posted in my original post. As soon as I added the File to the folder it started spamming the filesystem events. Maybe it is a bug of the fs watch lib you're using.
