Please attach the cpuprofile.txt file so we can see what's causing the high cpu usage.

It's most likely due to many wakatime-cli processes forked at the same time. We'll fix this by buffering heartbeats in vscode, then only forking wakatime-cli once every ~10 seconds.

Should be fixed with https://github.com/wakatime/wakatime-cli/pull/960.
