CPU pegged at 80% continuously by AppleSpell
Open, Needs TriagePublic

Description

  • OS: 10.14.6 (18G4032)
  • Browser: Chrome Version 80.0.3987.149 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Steps

Expected

  • Editing is smooth and the browser doesn't lag

Other details

  • When opening "Activity Monitor" there is a process called AppleSpell using 70% CPU, and Chrome uses 30% more
  • If you don't edit for a while, the process finishes its job and CPU usage goes back to "normal"
  • If you edit anything else the situation starts again

This makes the edit source mode basically unusable.
