My MacBook Pro (Late 2008 17-inch) seems to be VERY busy even when it 'should' be asleep after being left unused for, say, an hour or several hours.
It becomes hot underneath in middle near hinge (is this where the main chip is processing?) with sound of fan running fast.
Only have Firefox open.
Anyway, in Activity Monitor I see that something called MassStorageCamera process is using up to 190 % CPU.
What is "MassStorageCamera" anyway.
Seems to have started since I upgraded from OS X 10.6.8 straight to 10.8 (or maybe when I updated to 10.8.2).
BTW, in case this is related somehow, I also get the same "Problem with waking from sleep with 10.8.2" as in this thread:
