Just installed 3.5.0. When I run a program that spits out around 10M of data, performance becomes very sluggish and one core is steadily consuming 50% CPU. This persists after I clear scrollback buffer and only stops when I close the tab containing the session. 
MacBook Air M1 2020, macOS 14.5. 
Anyone else corroborate this?

2019 Macbook Pro here running Monterey and I see 100% CPU usage even after closing ALL TABS. It finally died down after a minute. I already disabled disk logging as I haven't been need it. AFAIK AI stuff is disabled. What's is iTerm doing while NOTHING IS HAPPENING (8 tabs but none yet reconnected to a session when it was eating 100% cpu after a fresh restart.)   This is crazy. Good thing Terminal is semi useful cuz I may have to revert until this is fixed.
