Just checked since you made me curious. With 1 PHP and 1 nodejs project in 2 windows, here's the usage (on Ubuntu Linux):

   Zed is using:
   - CPU: 4.7%
   - RSS: ~2.1 GB

The bulk of it is language servers (TypeScript/tsserver is adding ~600MB). Zed by itself is ~790MB RAM.

Is it constantly using that 4.7% CPU? (which could be one or two CPU cores depending on the processor).

For (what should be) an event driven application using any amount of CPU just sitting there idle is a big no-no. Anyone on a laptop should pay attention.
