That's what happens to me as well :-)
Now, back to the system load...
I have tried to read every line of the release notes on Git2, from 7.0.1 to 8.3.3, and despite there are a lot of improvements and new services available (mount points monitor to name one... but can be toggled) I cannot see anything that would result in CPU overload.
Could it be that some specific DAC driver / overlay is misbehaving, but not to the extent to immediately show up like rendering the unit mute, or crashing it?
I must say that I have always had moOde running either on a Pi3 or 4, and switching to the 4 the major improvement for me has been the more responsive UI, as I use the local 7'' display.
Also, having a nvme drive over USB 3 makes things very fast, but for what concerns SQ I strongly believe it can make any difference, apart from being eventually faster at loading the first track into the MPD cache.
