For a couple days now, I notice a process called pmproxy using 100% CPU on bootup and stays at 100%. I kill the process and it restarts a couple seconds later. I renamed the folder /usr/lib/pcp and that got it to stop restarting.

I don't remember installing or downloading anything like that. Is it malicious?

I'm using Ubuntu 20.04 LTS with latest updates.

I had the same issue due to cockpit-pcp removing both resolved the issue for me (as cockpit-pcp is not important for me on my laptop)

sudo apt remove pcp
