I can also confirm this bug. 100% CPU usage on the 'Resources' tab.

I have a theory about it. It appears that the update interval is not
obeyed correctly. When I have it set at 1, I get 100% CPU usage, and it
is updating *much faster* than 1 time per second. When I set it to 3 I
get 50% CPU usage and it updated about once per second. When set to 10,
it updates around every 2 seconds at 25% CPU usage.

That is, it seems to try to update much faster than the user requests,
which leads to extreme CPU usage.
