Issue
When running git commit with our hooks for linting the cpu goes completely crazy. I'm talking up to 95% cpu usage across all cores. I can run the same command in a native Terminal or JetBrains IDE or VS Code without the cpu hit that Hyper does. While linting the display has an animated text showing that it is working. After about 5 seconds this animation starts to slow as cpu spikes. Any help would be great as one of the main functions I use a terminal for is interacting with git, and if it constantly pegs my cpu then I can't use it. Looking forward to this being remedied as I do love this terminal!

Research direction
Start by reproducing a linting-hook git commit with animated text in Hyper.app on macOS, then compare CPU usage with native Terminal or another terminal. Trace the text-animation path involved while the hook runs; done means the command completes without sustained high CPU and the animation remains responsive.
