Progress indicators have high CPU/GPU usage

[rlansky-percipient]

• The issue is present in the latest release.
• I have searched the issues of this repository and believe that this is not a duplicate.

Current Behavior 😯

• Open Chrome
• Open Task Manager and observe low cpu and gpu usage usage
• Go to MUI sample page for progress indicators (https://mui.com/components/progress/)
• Observe how the Task Manager shows the tab using much cpu and gpu. Here's a screenshot of my usage on a 6-Core i7 Macbook Pro

Please note, this same behavior was reported in Issue 11060 (#11060) but that was 3 years ago. Not sure if things got fixed back then and regressed, or if it was ever fixed.

Expected Behavior 🤔

CPU/GPU usage should not be extraordinarily high.

Steps to Reproduce 🕹

Steps:

1. Open Chrome
2. Open Task Manager and observe low cpu and gpu usage usage
3. Go to MUI sample page for progress indicators (https://mui.com/components/progress/)
4. Observe how the Task Manager shows the tab using much cpu and gpu. Here's a screenshot of my usage on a 6-Core i7 Macbook Pro

For reference, I am using the latest version of Chrome on a Macbook Pro and I have observed the same behavior using Safari.
