Describe the bug

This is recent, but whenever there is a pending update to Warp it starts eating 100% CPU. As soon as I update the app, it calms back down. Annoying because I have to stop and restart my entire environment each time.

To reproduce

Only happens when a new update is available - so just wait and when you see the CPU usage climb while you aren't even in Warp you have found it.

Expected behavior

CPU usage shouldn't change when there's a new update.
