[BUG] cpu usage keeps increasing until crash

[JarbasAl]

when using any audio transformer plugin the cpu usage will continuously increase

replicated with ggwave and fasterwhisper lang detect plugins

reported by @builderjer and verified by @goldyfruit

ovos-dinkun-listener never really crashes, process still up and "running" but there is no wakeword detection.

[JarbasAl]

please test with OpenVoiceOS/ovos-plugin-manager#234

i havent diagnosed the error, but both me an @mikejgray reached the conclusion it must be on that code, so maybe its fixed by the general improvements in that PR

Where I noticed the bug the first time was when testing ovos-transformer-plugin-ggwave. When it was enabled and automatically started, CPU usage would continually rise. First indications were at about 5 minutes. By 15 minutes, CPU was at 100 and OVOS was unusable.

Testing now, with OpenVoiceOS/ovos-plugin-manager#234 , it seems to have fixed the problem. I have had ggwave transformer running for 45 minutes and no CPU increase.

closing for now, please re-open if still an issue!

This is not fixed. After a full day of being activated, my device crashed and it has to do with ovos-ggwave-listener. CPU usage still rises, just not near as fast.

[JarbasAl]

can you replicate with the faster whisper lang detect? just to be sure it isnt a different issue with ggwave plugin itself

  "listener": {
    "audio_transformers": {
        "ovos-audio-transformer-plugin-fasterwhisper": {
            "model": "small"
        }
    }
  }

Going to close this and open in ovos-audio-transformer-plugin-ggwave.

With the above configuration, I have had no issues for over 24 hrs
