Whenever Brave Wallet is open in separate tab or as extension, Hugh CPU load and high CPU temperature occurs

Description of the issue: As the title says, whenever I have the brave wallet open my cpu load spikes like crazy and the temperature gets hot, this has never happened before and i just started to use the new brave wallet after switching from metamask.

How can this issue be reproduced?

Brave Version (check About Brave):
Brave 1.48.158 Chromium: 110.0.5481.77

Additional Information:

After looking more into it, Windows defender seems to be conflicting with brave wallet somehow. When brave wallet opens up windows defender seems to spike cpu load and temps. Also even when my mouse hovers over the tab for wallet it spikes.

Thanks for the feedback. This should be resolved in the latest version (v1.58 as of today).

Wallet performance remains a top priority for us, and we’re working on a few other improvements as well that should further reduce CPU load. If at all you find the wallet slowing down, try deselecting networks from your portfolio that you don’t need/use.

If you still have issues with Windows Defender, let me know, and we can look into it.
