If the Project Browser is open, try closing it. On my Mac, the CPU usage
while idle is usually close to 0 when in the background.

Confirmed here on macOS 10.14.5. The CPU load is indeed quite dramatic

I also checked on Linux (Ubuntu 18.04), and LC does not exhibit the
problem there.
Thanks Richard for confirming, and testing on Linux. Yes I will file a bug
report.
It occurred to me that LC shouldn’t be using as much as 34% cpu when it is
just idling anyway, even when not running a modal stack. Testing just now
shows that is down to around 16%; of course LC’s time share will depend on
lots of OS factors and other running apps, but that’s still way too high
for an app supposedly doing nothing but waiting for events. Turning off the
Rinaldi revSmartSave plugin brings it down to between 4 and 7%, which is
more reasonable; presumably something to do with displaying its progress
bar, perhaps another wait side effect.
