Ubuntu Server 20.04.3  
Plexmediaserver version 1.25.2.5319 (Linux snap package)

Is it possible that a plexmedia server update changed my power usage?

Idle with only plexmedia server installed and a samba share it uses 60 watts.

10 december was the last time i checked 60 watts  
25 december i checked it changed to 26 watts

I changed nothing, didnt update anything, but snap packages get updated automatically.
