Did you turn meek on in the configuration? Or just obfs3 as Sherief did?
Actually, I never used PTs at all. That was 'normal' TorBrowser.
My guess is that "Apps using significant energy" has some kind of memory, and it may be showing things that used energy in the recent past, but not necessarily right now. Maybe it was left over from a previous time that Sherief used the bundle?
I've barely ever used PTs, and not in the past 2 weeks.
As for why the HTTP helper would be using battery, I suppose it is because of the base64 encoding and decoding that happens between the pluggable transport and the helper. That internal protocol is going to get overhauled anyway for #12857, and the base64 will probably go away.
I'm wondering if it's attributing the application name incorrectly, honestly.
