It’s been a while since I noticed that but I can’t find the reason. I selfhost :

  • a linkding with docker
  • a writefreely
  • a bludit blog
  • a CalDav (radicale)

There is a syncthing running for backups done with borg at night (automated with a crontab).

When I htop, I don’t see anything to hint me to what is causing the heating.

Any ideas of what I could do to investigate that?

Thanks a lot.

    I’ve repaired thousands of computers over the past 30 years. It’s really not that rare to see cooler brackets find ways to loosen themselves over time. I highly suspect if this is a new thing, just un-seat your CPU cooler, reapply thermal paste, and then properly re-seat your cooler again, and you’ll most likely be fine.
