Do you have adblock of some sort? Especially something at the DNS level, like the PiHole operating on your computer or network?
Because that will absolutely destroy Teams.
Teams tries to send Telemetry to MS, and the code is poorly written, where it keeps stacking up all those messages it was supposed to send, and keeps trying to resend them. This adds up and brings it to a grinding halt.
Try disabling the ad/dns blocking and see if it helps.

Absolutely the fuck not.
It wouldn't surprise me if this turned out to be an issue, but the idea that the solution is to allow Microsoft to exfiltrate whatever the hell they like on the whims of their product management is abhorrent - not a solution.

What? You’re already sending all the content of your chats and meetings to Microsoft servers. Why do you worry about sending telemetry that might actually help some dev fix some bugs?
For what it's worth, I run Microsoft Teams in its own isolated Chrome profile with almost no extensions (definitely no adblockers). It's been sitting in the background 99% unused for the past 4 hours and is currently wildly fluctuating between 500 and 850 MB of RAM usage + 8-12% CPU usage, despite not even being the focused tab in said Chrome profile.
That being said, I wouldn't be at all surprised if a content blocker made it even worse. It's just... not very good software.
