Hi Everybody,
I spoke with our engineering team to confirm that this issue was resolved. I'm following up with this thread to confirm that high CPU usage is no longer a problem for any users. Ensure your MacOS and Dropbox are up to date, and please let us know if this is still affecting you. Thanks!

I have had this issue since the 12.3 update. Dropbox is essentially unusable on my work machine, because even when not syncing it maintains 99% on at least 1 core in activity monitor. I have excluded 100% of my workplace share folders in hope to be able to access my personal files, but I have to leave the agent off until I can leave the room. Once it's on the fan is at 100% even when it's doing nothing.
Let me point out that I have been subscribed with a Pro account personally since 2011. I use dropbox on M1 macs, a Mac Pro and linux systems and have never had more than a nuisance type issue with syncing. The current state is unacceptable.
