If my computer is on battery I've selected don't run. All good.

But if my computer is plugged in Seti runs even though I've selected suspend work if computer is in use, and suspend GPU work if computer is in use, and set the in use to be any keystroke in last five minutes.

Seems to ignore preference settings and uses all my CPU making it impossible for me to work. Screen grab of Activity monitor: http://prntscr.com/4lw9jo
(It should not be running at all but it's using 70% of my processor...)

Any ideas?

In the activity menu, do you have "run based on preferences" selected?
