exchangesyncd & dataaccessd processes causing extremely high CPU usage?

I have recently noticed that these two processes are constantly running and consuming CPU time, causing my M1 Max MacBook Pro to constantly show approx 20% total CPU usage (first two cores are always pegged).


Has anyone else experienced this? I know that exchangesyncd has something to do with MS Exchange, I do have Outlook installed on this machine and I do have two Microsoft based email accounts linked to the computer as well to sync with my calendars and contacts for work. Deleting them is not an option.


I am unsure what dataaccessd is connected to, a search didn't yield any tangible results.


Any help or tips would be appreciated. I am running Ventura 13.3.1(a).

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 13.3
