SIgnificant Increase in HazelHelper CPU Usage Since 3.1

3.1 is a fantastic update. It added a lot of things I've been hoping for for sometime. Of the new features, I have implemented the FTP upload. Since updating and adding the FTP upload the hazelhelper process as increased its CPU usage considerably-as much as 50-75% of CPU usage. Could this be because of the FTP upload, or is there something else I am missing?

Also, select the process in Activity Monitor and do Sample Process as that will tell what it's doing at the moment.

It seems to have cleared up after a couple of restarts. I have been trying, but I have not been able to replicate the problem since then. Nonetheless, I appreciate the responses. I will update the thread if it does reoccur.

I've had the same problem twice since the update. I've noticed hazelhelper is over 100% of CPU.

Until now, I've stopped Hazel, killed the process, and restarted Hazel and it seems fine.

Next time it happens I'll get more detail.
