Description

Is anyone else also facing the issue, that the CPU utilization reaches 100% on the receiving side?

I use a Pi4 2GB and have a constant 100% cpu utilization on one core.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the constant 100% CPU usage on a Pi4 2GB while receiving packets, then inspect the receiving path in the repository to identify what consumes the core. Done means the receiving side no longer holds one core at 100% under the reported conditions, with a regression test or reproducible measurement documenting the result.
