It's constantly sending requests from BE to FE - checking IP, checking watch time etc.

That’s entirely unrelated to the backend language (and mostly unrelated to CPU usage for that matter).
do you know javascript? it can eat CPU
Java and JavaScript have no relation at all.
How you will send request to FE and back if you have java in BE?
I'm not trying to be harsh, but it genuinely sounds like you have no idea what you're talking about
You can be harsh — it is pretty dumb to come here shitting on a whole platform, when they don’t even know the basics.
What did you mean when you wrote this? You can send a request to any backend server, regardless of language.
Alright, its clear that either you’re a troll or you don’t realise that you have no idea what you’re talking about, either way there’s no point going further into this conversation
That is nothing to do with Java.
That shouldn't take that much CPU tbh, but if it does, it sounds like they have some optimization to do.

I wonder if it's like DRM in video games, causing a lot of overhead.

Makes sense. The most gifted coders wouldn't work in DRM and telemetry. At least I hope that's what is happening.
Maybe.

I watch streams on youtube, twitch etc and everything is fine.

However whole CPU is flying to the moon if I will watch something on netflix.

Btw Chrome was pure a nightmare for CPU but Brave is better.
