CPU temperature is 72°C, how can I find why? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

It's been a while since I noticed that but I can't find the reason. I selfhost :

a linkding with docker
a writefreely
a bludit blog
a CalDav (radicale)

There is a syncthing running for backups done with borg at night (automated with a crontab).

When I htop, I don't see anything to hint me to what is causing the heating.

Any ideas of what I could do to investigate that?

Thanks a lot.

a bit unrelated but try btop instead of htop, it has realtime updates including temps, network, processes, memory and disks.
