I’m seeing consistent high CPU usage of over 200% on my MacBook Pro M4 Pro. I’m on version 0.45.4 and already restarted Cursor several times.
What more can I do to investigate this?

Hey, it looks like there’s an issue with one of the extensions. Try starting in safe mode using this command in the terminal: cursor --disable-extensions
. Check if the issue persists or if it’s resolved. If the issue isn’t resolved, you’ll need to identify the problematic extension. Open the command palette and type "Process Explorer"
to locate it.
We discovered that it was the CodeTogether Cloud extension that was causing this issue for us.
(edited for spelling)
Disabled all the extensions, and made all the suggested changes to workspace json, and its still recording 100% CPU usage. Process Explorer shows 0 cpu for everything, so not very useful. So definitely cursor issues as well. Unless someone has an idea how to fix going to have to go back to vscode. Please, anyone have an idea of what to look at?
Hey, does the 100% usage start immediately once you open Cursor?
Starts high on first open…then comes down a bit and then cycles through 100% usage of all my cores basically as I start to do anything in the ide. Playing with it a bit and maybe…but not verified…if I clean out all the history in the chat and composer it stays down for longer. So wondering if its something to do with indexing the context. I do have it set to private if that matters.
Do you have the shadow workspace feature enabled?
I have this disabled and yet I still was not able to resolve the issue.
I’ve tried disabling various extensions.
The VSCode Process Explorer only shows minimal CPU usage yet Activity Monitor shows Cursor utilizing 200% CPU.
