The profile says most of the time is spent in sit-for called from
lsp-request-while-no-input.  First, sit-for is not supposed to consume
CPU, because it's a waiting function.  Are you sure this profile was
taken when Emacs was hogging CPU?

And second, lsp-mode is not part of Emacs, so if indeed the above is a
profile representative of high CPU load, I suggest to report this to
the developers of lsp-mode first, even though the problem appears only
in the PGTK build.

Thanks.
