Update:

When corespeechd Uses CPU and Network excessively on maccos, the first signs that appear are the noise produced by the MAC cooling system (COOLER CPU FAN) and the difficulty of working processes. MacBook or Mac begins to run harder.

If you are experiencing problems related to the process corespeechd, whether it uses large resources from the processor, or transfers large volume of data, before taking action, it is good to know what this process is and what is the role corespeechd on the maccos operating system.

What is Corespeechd?

It is well known that the process corespeechd It is not part of an application and is not a virus, but it is a system process that is performed in the background to make the function by which the selected texts can be read aloud (vocal) on macos. It performs the function of text-to-voice.

Therefore, corespeechd is a daemon Al Macos, designed primarily for people with disabilities, who have visual or mobility difficulties. These people can have access to the text content in a more easily and accessible way.

All this process also responds to the accessibility of VoiceOver, which people with vision problems use to make it easier to navigate in the menus and applications of the operating system.

The scenarios in which Corespeechd uses CPU and Network excessively are closely related to the MacOS vocal assistance function.

Correspeechd uses CPU and Network - How to Fix

If the Corespeechd process uses CPU and Network, first of all, you must give it time. It is possible to update its database (so use the network) or CPU, when initialized for the first time.

However, there may also be errors of Correspechd to maintain a high use of CPU. In this case, follow the steps below to reduce the use of CPU and Network of this Daemon Macos.

1. Disable System Integrity Protection (SIP)) – Here is the Tutorial of deactivation SIP).

Careful! The deactivation of SIP will allow the administrator user to bring maccos system files (kernel).

2. Restart Mac.

3. Open the terminal utility and execute orders one by one:

sudo mount -uw /
sudo killall Finder

SUDO COMMANDS mount -uw / on Macos mounts the main file system (/) in reading-writing mode and allows users with administrator permissions to make changes in the system.

-uw There are options for Mount. -u it means ”unmount"(Detachment) of the file system before trying to mount it. -w It means that the file system is mounted in reading-writing mode.

SUDO COMMANDS killall Finder Restart Finder.

4. Rename the file com.apple.corespeechd.plist from the location ”/System/Library/LaunchAgents/":

cd /System/Library/LaunchAgents/
sudo mv com.apple.corespeechd.plist com.apple.corespeechd.plist.bak

5. Activate System Integrity Protection in place.

6. Restart Mac.

After this change, the Corespeechd process uses CPU and Network in normal parameters.

Conclusion

The process correspeechd It is an important component of Macos, created to provide essential accessibility features, such as Text-to-Speech and Voiceover. Although it rarely cause problems, the excessive use of CPU and network resources may occur in certain situations. Following the steps described in this article, users can quickly identify and solve these problems, ensuring optimal functioning of the system.

It is important to note that the changes involved, such as deactivating SIP or renaming system files, should be done with caution. Thus, a balance is maintained between the performance of the device and the preservation of the essential functionalities of Macos. If the problem persists, contacting Apple support or updating the operating system can be a useful solution.
