@ZiG-ZaG and @CiscoCampos have reported, that removing the “BraveSoftware” folder
/Users/username/Library/Application Support/BraveSoftware
. . . fixed the problem.
The solution to this problem was exactly that, steps I took:
Downloaded the package directly from Git
Installed the Software
Went into User>Library (it’s a hidden folder)
Deleted the BraveSoftware folder
Relaunched Brave and it worked normally.

## Description
Since today, Brave is using a full CPU core constantly. My CPU fan keeps spinning my ears off and the system probably eats tons of electricity.
Also, Brave cannot be quit properly. The main process keeps spinning around the CPU and never closes. I have to kill it to close Brave. Next time I start it, I can restore the session.
I've closed all tabs now but the issues doesn't go away. It's really frustrating to use this browser now.
The internal task manager (Shift+Esc) doesn't show anything I could use. The browser is around 100% and the entries from the second line on change permanently, with just a few % CPU usage. No single culprit to be found here. Must be the browser itself. A bad update?
