It’s actually SSHD I’m sorry for the typo, so you have it too? Did you notice it prior to 11.1 and is it Un-ticked for you as well or was it ticked?
You never had a remote computer access your Mac or you accessed another Mac remotely either right? (Just as in my case)
Gotcha. It's unticked for me (was unticked by default, didn't touch it), and I didn't pay attention in 11.0.1, so am not sure if it was there or not prior to 11.1, sadly. And, no, no remote access at all either way for me. Hope that helps.

Also, Activity Monitor wasn’t showing any significant processes going on. That’s why I downgraded to Catalina
It wouldn't show anything in the case of dual graphics chips either.
The problem in that case is that a normally running process (displaypolicyd) locks the discrete card as the only operating chip - thus creating more heat.

Same here IMac 2019 with Fusion Drive . After ca 4-5 min till its fully functional.
I think the next reboot or start, will be the same insane delay. My little SSD from de Fusion Drive has 29Gb. I think Big Sur needs more space to be completely installed, so, when it continues to install on the HD, the speed is not acceptable.

About WiFi issue I mentioned above, Apple Support had me reboot in safe mode, which as I understood in the background causes M1 Macs to reset some stuff. It sounded like this is the Apple Silicon equivalent of SMC reset. After rebooting again normally, it seemed be working fine during the call. They said if it comes back next step would be to reinstall macOS. It came back. I did a fresh reinstall. During the post installation setup, it gets stuck where I create my user. It says cannot use username no matter what I choose. I tried to reboot, then user it said it could not create is there at the login screen but password does not work, nor does resetting password with icloud account work. Next I went to recovery mode to reset password but I get a “directory server does not support the requested authentication method” error. Apple Support suggested I reinstall macOS and try again, which is in progress...

I saw that but I never had any remote access enabled on my Mac so why would that show up on my privacy settings page is why I’m confused, do you have that keygen sshd in your privacy pane as well under full disc access?
No I don't have that.
Did you set up sharing at all?

Did you manage to solve this? I have the same problem. Tried rebooting but same thing occurs.
No I did not manage to solve it in an easy way. Did a fresh install to another partition on my system :mad: and copied my files over.

this did not fix the flickering on my external monitors unfortunately. Anyone know if they are working on that in the current beta?

Thank you, much appreciated, I thought it was only me and that that process appeared suspicious

Update went smooth as always on a 2018 Mac mini here. 11.1 actually fixed the DNS issues with VPNs so the OS no longer kernel panics when running my VPN client and Little Snitch at the same time.
