I use VSCode with Continue. It has a Code Helper Plugin, which peaks during use, but when idle it doesn't use any resource. Something is up with the Kiro version where some background task is running.

See the NathanKP comment on the (grand parent post?), It was the indexing which was causing the resource utiliazation.

For a large project, it seems to still be using high CPU (maybe continuously indexing)
