@aquaspy can you please use the Task manager in Brave to help us narrow this down? You can find via the Hamburger menu (3 lines, top right) => More Tools => Task Manager

I suspect that the Bat Ledger Service is taking up all the CPU, which we have recently found a cause for (captured with #8846). If you can confirm that would be great 😄

[bsclifton]

pretty sure this is related to the Bat Ledger Service- going to close this as a duplicate of #8846

@bsclifton yes, it was Bat ledger service. Thanks for fast reply. Keep the good work!
