High CPU utilization when burp is idle

ethan | Last updated: Feb 17, 2022 06:58PM UTC

Last week, I upgraded to the latest version on Burp professional (2202.1.1) and I'm noticing that Burp is now running at ~60% CPU utilization when idle. When running a single active scan or intruder, the CPU will spike to 80-90% and things stop working. I have unloaded all burp plugins and Burps idle CPU level still hovers around 60-65%. Running an i7-10610U with 48Gb of RAM. I dont recall this ever being an issue and I've been using Burp on this laptop for over a year an a half. help? Thanks!
