Atom Helper high CPU when enabled

[kevinansfield]

When I have this package enabled I end up with an Atom Helper process sitting at 50-60% CPU constantly.

I've tried grabbing a profile using Atom's developer tools but that didn't provide any insights as it seemed to only profile the main Atom process.

Is there anything I can do to help diagnose?

This is a known issue with emberwatch/ember-language-server (For example see ember-tooling/ember-language-server#54).

As far as I know the issue is related to chokidar which is used to watch file changes in emberwatch/ember-language-server. There is also an issue regarding high cpu usage on macOS: paulmillr/chokidar#597.

I did some experiments with using the system installed node version instead of the one bundled in atom, with mixed results.

The problem was fixed in the last ember-language-server release (0.2.0) so I think upgrading the version in here should fix the problem in Atom as well.
