    At first only the popped up windows caused unity.exe to max out on CPU utilization, but recently even if all windows are docked it causes this strange error.

    If I minimize Unity then CPU overhead stops, but as soon as I maximize the window the utilization jumps to 100% instantly even on empty projects.

    I just found out the solution. In Preferences settings > General > Interaction mode I had it set to "no throttling" and when I changed it to "default" the overhead disappeared.
