Hazelimporter running at 100% cpu every so often

Get help. Get answers. Let others lend you a hand.

The details of my system are as follows:
Computer: MacBook Pro (16 inch 2019); 2.4 GHz 8-Core Intel Core i9; 32 GB RAM; Intel UHD Graphics 630 1536 MB
macOS: 11.4

I am running Hazel 5.0.7.

Every so often my MacBook Pro fan turns on for about 30 seconds or so when I am doing nothing but browsing the Net (with few applications open). Activity Monitor, on those occasions, shows the Hazelimporter process using 100% cpu. I managed to take a sample of the process while that happened. Please let me know if I should submit it.

Edit: I have managed to narrow down the occasions on which this happens. It occurs while reading, in PDF Expert, a pdf located in my Downloads folder—a folder which is monitored by Hazel. However, I am merely reading the pdf—not amending and re-saving it.

Can you do the following?

- Launch Activity Monitor. Find the process in question. Note its PID.
- Do "Sample Process" and send me the output.
- In Hazel's "Info" section, click on "View Log"
- In the search field, enter "[XXXX]" where XXXX is the PID noted earlier. Send me that output.

Do this a couple of times with 30 seconds in between. Email in the results.
