Campaign Logger CPU Use?

How much CPU use do you see when you use Campaign Logger?

I am using the preview with Firefox (78.9.0esr current) on Debian (10, kernel 5.10) and when I have one of my campaigns open, with 328 campaign entries, I am seeing the "Web Content" process spawned by Firefox use 100%+ CPU ... which means it's using 100% of a 3.6GHz core, and some of a second core.

Is this to be expected?

I never encountered such an issue. On my machine, it seems to run on just one core but is mostly idling. Is it staying at full power the whole time?

I haven't check the CPU usage, yet. But occasionally I can't just use CL du to mega lag, especially if there is a video conferencing tool running, e.g. Jitsi. Last time we played on Jitsi I wasn't able to write any Log Entries. Right now I have it running at 2% usage CPU (plus a little GPU).

Yes, its pretty constantly 100% on that core for me, and I don't have other video software running.
I also thought it might be a side effect of a Firefox plugin, but I've marked campaign-logger.com and related sites as exempt in my plugins and still see it.
I will keep poking around since I expect its something with my browser setup specifically, but wanted to make sure you knew in case some background thread or something had started to go haywire.

Interesting... I've closed that tab, opened a new one, and relogged in - and now its not doing it. I wonder if a script got stuck or something.
If I see it happen again I will try to quantify it better. Interesting ... Heisenbugs.
