Thunderbird High CPU with status bar on

Thunderbird Crashing and slow performance

Thunderbird running 70-80% CPU with status bar showing. Once status bar is removed this drops. Have noticed some bug reports mentioned Linux but I'm on Windows 10 ESU (up to date). Updated TB to 153.0.3esr but no improvement. Tried troubleshoot mode but no improvement. Also noticed that emails aren't getting moved to the deleted folder from inbox. Checked today and none had been moved for 3 days. I deleted some of the older ones from 'Deleted' and then it did update.

PS to add - status bar is constantly showing 'Connected to imap.gmail.com' with the blue bar extended fully to the right. I compacted inbox and deleted folders but didn't help.
