Research direction

Start by profiling the process during the reported CPU spikes and trace which task is consuming a core when no calendar changes are being synced. The issue names no files or tests; identify the hot path and reproduce the repeated spikes before proposing a fix. Done means CPU use no longer stays near a full core for several minutes without sync activity.

Description

Multiple times a day the process uses up 100% of a core for several minutes and causes my laptop to get hot. This is despite no calendar changes having been made in the interim, so I don't understand why it's so CPU intensive when nothing is getting synced.
