Bug description

You can see that MeetingBar is amongst my highest 12-hour power uses. It's notably 6x higher than Meeter, which is a similar application. It is regularly in my top 3 energy users despite using Slack, Signal, and Outlook quite a lot at work. I notice MeetingBar regularly using 40-60% of a CPU core.

Tested on a MacBook Pro M1 Max.

I prefer MeetingBar to Meeter, but the CPU issue is a big turnaway for when I need to just work on documents rather than hardcore coding like in the screenshot. (In MeetingBar, I love the feature of being able to see my meetings' descriptions from the menu bar to easily open meeting minutes! 1000 IQ play)

Reproduction steps

No response

Expected behavior

MeetingBar should not use very much energy. It definitely shouldn't be in my top 3 energy users. Frankly, even Meeter's energy usage seems high to me compared to Outlook from my screenshot, which I use constantly.
