ssd writes

The ssd writes tag tracks reports of unusually heavy storage activity associated with the OpenAI Codex desktop app. Current coverage focuses on a logging defect that generated sustained SSD writes on some systems, along with a later Codex update reported to reduce that activity. The tagged discussion also separates continued local storage churn from a possible macOS system-policy process that can remain stuck at high CPU and memory use. User reports describe sluggish MacBooks, browser stalls, delayed typing, erratic mouse movement, and poor graphics performance even after the app is closed, showing that reduced SSD writes may not resolve every related performance problem.
