# bird进程

在Mac OS X上，有一个`bird`后台进程，在使用`icloud`存储同步服务时，可能会出现非常高的cpu使用率。

参考 [Process 'Bird' in Activity Monitor](http://forums.macrumors.com/threads/process-bird-in-activity-monitor.1804688/)

> `bird`是一个后台云功能的系统进程，没有配置选项，也不能手工运行。

当有大量文件同步的时候，cpu资源消耗严重。

["bird" process is taking over](https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6606275?tstart=0)提供了一个监视`bird`同步文件的方法：

```bash
brctl log --wait --shorten
```

此时可以看到同步日志

```bash
