Running Great!
Nothing wrong on my setup. A late 2017 MacBook Pro with a secondary acer display hooked up. Not running hot and am now testing and have hit 1 hour and 15 minutes without any problems at all.

Confirmed Working!
I saw the previous post and immediately installed the update to 10.14.2 and YES, it now works. Apple must have patched it.
I'm very happy to have my fish back!
