I just updated to Lightroom Classic 7.3 and CPU is at 100% for literally hours, doing nothing

I just updated lightroom to 7.3 and now my CPU is at 100% for all threads.  I am running the latest MacOS.  I close lightroom CPU goes to 0.  I open Lightroom and my 2016 macbook pro becomes a space heater and I can't use it on battery for more than a few minutes.

How can I troubleshoot?  There are no processes in the background.   I'm not even doing anything and I left it running for a few hours in case it had a background task to complete.  There's no feedback or indicators of it doing anything.

I can't use it on battery and it's slow as molasses plugged in.

Any leads?

Make sure Address Lookup and Face Detection are paused.

Thank you for the quick response!!  That fixed it.

Ironically, I don't even have GPS in my 6Dm2 turned on because it's such a battery hog, nor do I use the facial recognition feature because it can't tell the difference between a toddler and a dog.

I've never noticed this CPU issue before, but with the patch, something broke their background processes.  I do have 48,000 images in my catalog, though.
