Wifi sucking battery

Anyone else having wifi sucking their battery? Just noticed that it's at 38%.

Has wi-fi been on the whole time? Or have you had it off, and the battery stats show that it's been on? I've seen one or two mentions of the latter issue.

Does that persist after a reboot? How about a cache partition wipe? http://forums.androidcentral.com/nexus-5-rooting-roms-hacks/352008-guide-nexus-5-recovery.html

See this kind of statistics on my phone as well, in spite of Wi-Fi is off.
But battery life is surprisingly good and I think it's a (another) flaw in the battery report. It also has a bar showing Wi-Fi always ON, which is not true.

My own Nexus 5 has shown this false reporting since updating to 6.0. I dare say that it will be fixed in 6.0.1.
