A320 APU Usage

Hi everyone! I'm just wondering what is the normal day to day operation of the APU on an A320? I'm a ground handler and with my experience of A320's at Cork it seems the APU's are always running as you can hear it and see the heat from the exhaust, are APU's always running during turnarounds to keep the cabin warm etc? And for example after ground power is connected do they keep the APU running simply for cabin comfort?

Any responses appreciated!
