Don't know which version this problem arose but the latest WF56.1 has high cpu usage before uploading a file to mega.nz. Looks like it has something to do with encrypting workload? This doesn't happen in FF52 ESR. Did not try FF56.x. Issue is noticeable on large files.
Just tested FF56.x and it is affected too. So this is not a WF issue. I also went back to WF55.0.4 and it too was affected.
… something to do with encrypting workload? …
I don't use the service, but I would have the same guess.
Have you sought advice from users of the service, or from the service provider?
