Well from my understanding the core problem is the statistical models used to calculate their probability were completely wrong. So we had “hard” math “proving” they were once-in-a-million-years unlikely, and that lasted until we had overwh

I haven't had issues like that, but usually it's Xcode doing the "use all cores" thing so I suspect they're properly assigning QoS. I did find that if I switch power on my desk fan _and_ my USB-C hub is plugged in t
