DavidGB (and everybody else seeing high CPU use), we think this actually has something to do with heavy Javascript use in general, since it's also been seen in non-extension processes. It seems to be very random though, meaning that it's hard to get into this state on-demand. If anybody can find a way to reproduce this on demand, it would really help our investigation!

josh_bodner I've seen this occur with new tab page too. Adding to that thought, it just started again when I pressed the reply button to your comment. In the browser task manager, the new tab is seen to consume the CPU most. There's a "dedicated worker" drop-down in its sub-menu. Attaching it for reference.
