Description

OSX: Yosemite 10.10.3
IDEA: IU-142.3371.3

With Grails project, relatively small, IDEA usually consumes a HUGE amount of CPU.
This does not related to any actions inside IDE, just after project is opened.
This is looks like UI-related, since if I click File->Invalidate Caches/Restart, and then leave Invalidate dialog opened and rest of Idea UI is blocked, CPU usage goes down from 600% to 4%. Same if I open Settings dialog, or Rename in files dialog, and most probably any modal.

CPU profile is attached

Research direction

No source file or test is identified. Start by reproducing the issue with a small Grails project on OSX Yosemite in IDEA IU-142.3371.3, then inspect the attached CPU profile and compare usage with a modal dialog open; done means identifying and fixing the cause of the sustained high CPU usage.
