Hello. anyone seeing osquery going crazy cpu with "osqueryd worker (pid) stopping: Maximum sustainaible utilization limit exceeded" and killed every 15sec or so? almost no other messages but a few hundred query results (network connections and process) vs 4k limit exceeded a day... trying to get more info on setup. Thanks

you need to figure out which query or queries are causing the load.
strip down your config to minimal and build it up from there

you are going to have to touch the config at some point. Look at "SELECT name, interval, executions, output_size, wall_time, (user_time/executions) as avg_user_time, (system_time/executions) as avg_system_time, average_memory, last_executed FROM osquery_schedule;"
might give you insight on cpu and memory load

clearly. added monitoring pack on my options. for now, trying to get system build-run book so I can minimize test iterations...
