My Windows 10 workstation has high CPU (> 50%) with the ASDM Java application. I tried various versions of ASDM on multiple ASAs and various versions of Java from 7.x to 8.x without success.
Not much came up on a search but I did come across a post (lost the reference) that had a side note about this issue. The side note stated to delete the
C:\Users\<username>\.asdm
folder to alleviate high CPU. This solved the issue for me and I wanted to share this information as a top-level post for future searches.
