    I believe I have pinpointed the cause of the issue: disabling the https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Graphite.gti-vscode extension in VSCode resolved it.

    I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. 
    1Password was not the problem.

    I will report this to the Graphite team. 
    Thank you for your help!

Hello Marco​! 👋

I'm sorry that you're seeing 1Password use a lot of CPU on your Mac, that certainly doesn't seem normal. If you restart your Mac then does the issue resolve? Or does it come back? 

Can you also tell me if you're recently moved to a new Mac? And are you using an Intel-based or Apple Silicon-based Mac? You can check by clicking on the Apple  in the menu bar and then clicking About this Mac. 

I look forward to hearing from you.
