constant CPU and "Energy Impact" usage on macOS Sierra

See original GitHub issue

Hi. I’m always getting this even with a single empty and silent tab opened:

screen shot 1

screen shot 2

plugins: ['hyperterm-atom-dark', 'hyperterm-subpixel-antialiased']

Other electron-based apps on my machine like Atom in idle mode are barely noticeable in Activity Monitor top rows, so I don’t think that this issue is related to macOS Sierra Public Beta which I use. Any thoughts?

I think most people who’ve stopped by to report this issue weren’t using the hyperpower plugin. I, for one, wasn’t. So let’s not chase that rabbit hole, thinking it’s the root cause.
