Why does STM32CubeIDE use Chromium and peg my CPU so high on MacOS?

I'm running IDE version 1.13.1 on MacOS 11.7.1 on a MBP with a dual core 2.8Ghz i7. Unlike every other IDE / CAD package that I use, STM32CubeIDE pegs my CPU really high and spins up the fans even when doing NOTHING. As in, there is no project open, no editors, no HW configuration, literally NOTHING.

Why?

I experienced similar issues with excessive CPU/GPU usage. The solution from @WojRus worked also in my case.

The CubeIDE is poorly optimized indeed.
