Thanks for your observations, Akshay. I’m not sure about whether my Dashboard is “open” or not, but my screen does not show it. What shows in the pgAdmin window is a query window with no query running. But whatever was going on yesterday when I wrote the original email is no longer happening. It is now using under 1% of energy, even though pgAdmin is immediately visible beneath the Activity Monitor window, so I’m gong to chalk that up to a glitch.
Thanks for looking at this for me.
