I don't understand. Those who say that the mac doesn't need to be shut down don't heat up?

From win to mac, macmini m4 has been using high intensity for half a year, but the problem of sleep fever has not been solved. The standby temperature can reach more than 60 degrees. I connected macmini to a Xiaomi socket, and the sleep power consumption is higher than normal use. Can you stand this? At the beginning, I also searched the Internet for solutions. What software to watch power consumption should not be used, what settings prevent automatic sleep, what activity monitor checks which program consumes power, etc. Basically, I have used all kinds of methods. Usually, I just turn on the Mijia plug to see how much power it consumes. There is no accident. It is completely metaphysical. It depends purely on your mood. There is no pattern. The power consumption will be low and high. And the most important thing is the problem of memory leakage. The windowsever doesn't shut down for a few days, which directly occupies several g memory. I have seen no less than ten posts on windowsever in the station, but there is no solution. Don't ask, ask is restart. Since you have nothing to do, it's better to shut down when you don't use it. Apple users are really adaptable. Speaking of which, I have to complain about homepod by the way. Let's talk about macmini. Since last week, I turn it off every time I use it. I give up the bad habit of looking at power consumption when I have nothing to do. The body is cold, and it is easy and stress-free to touch when I turn it on. How to use it comfortably. If there is any means to solve the problems of heating and memory leakage, I would still like to leave it unshuttered. The key point is that these two problems are very common. I have seen on the Internet that not only macmini, but also mac studio and MacBook are available. I can only say that there are many unsatisfactory places in macos.

    I open too many windows, and I don't want to close them one by one, so I just restart Dafa, haha

    You just use it as an ipad, and if the ipad is not used, he won't turn it off

    @ Anonymous11135 How much does windowsever take up if it doesn't shut down for 70 days? Doesn't it affect usage?

    @ Anonymous2349 When the iPad screen is turned off, it won't heat up at every turn.

    There is definitely heat when using it. But it doesn't seem like it won't work after the screen is turned off. I just want to leave it unturned off for a long time and then restart it directly.

    @ Anonymous2350 No, when using it, the fan will start but it won't heat up. It's always around 40 degrees, and the heat can reach 60 or 70 degrees when sleeping. It's hot to touch the fuselage.

    What are you afraid of? When we used mac mini 2018 before, we didn't turn it off all day long. You have to believe in the quality of Apple and buy care if you are afraid of breaking down. Besides, if you use windows, you will not turn off your phone all day long, and you can turn off the monitor at most when you come back remotely at any time

    How can it be hot when you sleep
  • Anonymous2350 May 23, 2025
    @ Poster # 8 I have never encountered your situation before

    @ Poster Now it seems that it is 4.5 GB. The Mac used for work has 32G memory. It rarely encounters lag, occasionally. But the 16G MacBook Air at home is often used to watch videos, and it is very stuck. As you said, the windowserver takes up a lot of memory

    Did you know that the on button for mac mini4 is set at the bottom? I'm just telling you: I don't have to turn it on and off every time

    @ Anonymous373 I'm not afraid of bad things. I'm purely uncomfortable with its fever when sleeping. After I used various methods, it still didn't solve it, which made me feel frustrated.

    Sleep + memory leakage sounds like an old problem of win10. I have encountered the cover directly without turning off the "photo viewer" before, and the memory occupation exploded the next day, so I started using third-party picture viewing software.

    The problem is that it gets hot after shutting down and then it runs out of power for a few days, 🐶
  • Anonymous2354 May 23, 2025
    I don't know why recently, but it gets stuck after using it for a long time, just restart it once and it will be fine

    @ Anonymous2347 # 1 Sometimes the heat is hotter than the hand warmer. I don't know what's going on. I run out of electricity and shut down myself in one night.

    I have encountered op problems several times. Occasionally it gets hot when sleeping, but it gets better after restarting
