Hi Elliot! Thanks for reporting.

This is a known issue. On some mac’s, the current build triggers a bug in mono, causing 40% CPU usage no matter what.

The problem is fixed internally, but the work around was quite extensive, so it may take a week or so before we can roll it out.

Anyway, welcome back 🙂
