Yesterday I noticed the my Nexus 6 (running stock rooted Marshmallow 6.0.1) was running quite hot a few minutes after I had ended GPS navigation and disconnected power.
I used SystemPanel Lite to check which processes were using the CPU and I noticed that tasker was very active and its CPU usage wasn't going down. I included a couple of screen shots from SystemPanel Lite to show this.
I turned on the tasker run log and waited a couple of minutes but nothing appeared in the run log so I turned it off.
I then turned on the tasker debug log and started capturing an android bug report file. Shortly after that (within a minute or two, not sure the exact timing), the tasker monitor crashed and restarted (and my startup task triggered another bug report as a result).
I rebooted after the bug reports were done and tasker appeared fine after that. Still I find the runaway CPU (and battery) usage and subsequent crash (after maybe as much as 20 minutes of the runaway usage) to be concerning.
I zipped all the above files and attached them here.

Attaching backup of my tasker setup.
Sorry for the multiple posts - originally I had everything in one zip file, but google groups said the size was too big.
