High power usage (might be MacOS Tahoe)

Feedback

I have experienced a high power usage sitting active and idle in BeZoned on my Mac.
BeZoned is opened from within Teams as a new window, and Teams meetings do not seem to take as many resources (no fan spinnin on those); However more testing is needed to confirm this. Could it be the GPU usage?
I managed to run out of juice before noon two days straight, where usually it last a day and half of Teams meetings.

With all that being said Tahoe 26 have multiple confirmed optimization issues that have surfaced with the update, which effect many applications, including Electron Apps (Teams): https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45376977

I will keep an eye out for Teams/OS update and test some more, just wanted to share issue and findings so far :)

    We are aware that rendering of the office is hard on the CPU/GPU currently. We are there looking into a better solution and expect to add it to the roadmap not too far into the future.

      That would make sense. Also why our Dev team did not experience the usage on their above average desktop setups with dGPU’s.
      Thanks for the quick replies!
