Hello Daniel!

I had one extension active (User Theme) for getting the dark theme truly
dark everywhere.
I checked top and it is gnome + shell that push the cpu up to over 80% -
but only in short
bursts.
I made two journal files just in case - I'll attach them.

Thank you so much for your help!
If there is anything more I can do to help out, please let me know

Kind regards
Jofen Kihlstrom
