Description
I just installed hyper term 1.3.2 on a windows 7 VM, and CPU usage is insane. It spikes when I focus out and in.
No customization, nothing, just default install.

Research direction
Reproduce the report in Hyper 1.3.2 on a Windows 7 VM using the default installation, then observe CPU usage while focusing the terminal out and back in. Done means the focus transition no longer causes the reported excessive CPU usage; the issue does not name a source file or test to start from.
