Lol, this isn't part of my workflow! I just happened to notice it one day and was intrigued.
I actually do remember an experience much like yours.
20+ years ago when PC CPUs didn’t properly idle when they had no work to do, there was a program called rain that would issue the correct idle commands or something. It lowered temps!
But when this program was running, moving my mouse would make a slight hum or buzz. That one probably took a bit to figure out.
