Disable Search Indexing in options. It uses a buggy piece of garbage called Akonadi in the background and was causing one core of my CPU to stay at 100% for no reason.

Akonadi also hogs a lot of memory for services i never use (calendar and centralised mail service, not sure if thunderbirs uses them). It's not a problem for my desktop pc so i don't tinker with it, on my 8 year old laptop on the other hand I'm going to have to switch to something lighter in the future (lxqt or xfce).
