Is this normal for Logs/CPU Usage

New feeder to Planefinder. Using a Raspberry Pi 3B+ Debian I've fed (and still feed) to Flightaware for years and am using their dump1090-fa. Also feed to Opensky. Since starting feed to Planefinder, I note CPU usage hovers around 12%, which seems ok, but looking for a sanity check. I also checked the log files and see the following:

And on and on, TCP connection closing, client restarting, reestablishing TCP connection repeatedly every few minutes. Display and feed seems about same as what I feed to Flightaware. Is this normal? If not, what is going on and how do I fix?
 
That is more CPU than I would expect in normal operation. That said it looks like it is not connecting to the data feed correctly. That may have a slight increase as it opens and closes the socket.

Check that the IP and port are correct. If this is on the same Pi I would use the loopback address of 127.0.0.1

Thanks. Using the loopback fixed the constant TCP closing and reconnecting issue. CPU dropped a couple percent too. I'm good!
