To be honest, not really. Under the hood, FW has 20 second timeouts on anything reaching out to the Internet--which should be sufficiently short. Since plugins run in their own threads, it takes a pretty substantial problem for a plugin to tie up the server.

One thing springs to mind, although it shouldn't create a catastrophic error: can you confirm that you're using FW 2022.0.4 with a Pirate Weather API key?

A long shot is that the plugin might be corrupted for some reason. You might try downloading a new copy from the app store and installing it right on top of the existing install.

I just started getting these errors without the FW plugin enabled. I'm stumped now, but it's not the FW plugin.

Have you looked at Activity Monitor to see if any processes are using gobs of CPU or memory?

The only thing strange is:

1) accountsd perocess is using over 1 GB of memory. I have 16GB ph RAM and about 10 are being used.
2) mds_stores spikes to 75% CPU or so for a few seconds and then dies back down.

This sounds like a systemic issue with your Mac. Not much more we can do unless you can pinpoint a process that seems to be running away, either with high CPU or high Memory consumption...

I'm going to move this thread and rename it since it's not actually an Alexa issue.

I have been able to resolve the server memory and CPU issues by stopping th e PostGres server (it wasn't being used). The memory and CPU consumption are pretty low. I'm still getting the exception errors

Something is still hanging the server up. We have had no other issues like this reported so I'm not sure where else to look. I'd disable all 3rd party plugins and let it run to see if you get the problem with just built-in plugins/interfaces.
