I had the same thought, and while this is a complete guess, it passes my sniff test personally. It’s possible that when this setting is not enabled, those wake events are not coalesced into hourly wakeups, but instead happen arbitrarily throughout the night. That would immediately lead to the behavior described.
- chicagobob 1y agoExactly what the author meant to say.
- mikepurvis 1y agoYeah, sounds like it's really poorly labeled, and should instead be more like "Consolidate required maintenance tasks into hourly wake sessions" That would make it much clearer that enabling it = fewer wakes.
- duderific 1y agoIt took me a while and a couple of re-reads to parse out the same conclusion. Basically they're batched instead of happening continuously.
- jessriedel 1y agoBatching isn't mentioned anywhere. Do you have a positive reason to think this, or is it just the easiest hypothesis (besides a typo) explain what the author wrote?
- yawz 1y ago> "With the setting disabled, the Mac got into a kind of wake-up frenzy, instead of waking up and processing events in batch every hour"
