Ah, yes I see that too.

Yes, and I see the high CPU use as well. Also, it seems that Emacs
fails to notice when the program exits (e.g., it shows as still
running in M-x list-processes).

By the way, a shell is not needed,

   (start-process "git gui" "*git gui*" "C:\\Program
Files\\Git\\cmd\\Git-GUI.exe")

shows the problem too.
