But it seems to be a big problem only on your machine. What hardware are you running on? Is it a Raspberry PI? Like any TeX-related program, ConTeXt does a fair bit of disk access while starting up, but I haven’t heard of that being an actual problem since the age of single-core CPUs. And it certainly should not have an effect on the CPU usage of any other program (it could affect system responsiveness, though).
