It wouldnt surprise me if async is the/an issue resulting in lower batterylife. Think about it, it is constantly running. It's running for a reason and its using resources constantly too... the thing that makes me wonder is what is it doing? Why does it need to run so much?

Im not sure what its doing in the background, but it has to be important if the system launches it automatically, and important usually means theres some kind of cpu priority..

And once again, i havent had this tweak on for an entire day yet so this just might be a placebo right now.
