Background services (Discord, etc) use a negligible amount of processor power. It should be like sub-5% on a modern processor, with the processor clocked down to its lowest frequency. With the processor at turbo, you should be pulling 1-3% easily, even actively using multiple tasks. These days even Chrome is very aggressive about throttling background tabs, much to the consternation of some webdevs here. https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2017/03/chrome-57-background-tab-suspension-download/ https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2017/03/chrom...
