So when I stopped that service on my (Windows 7) system right before making that reply, are you saying that it didn't really stop?

Not in 10. Tried and got access denied. Not just on my problem system either; it's the same on my properly functioning (and I have local admin) work pc too.

That appeared to have some effect, but not the on label function.
Total CPU load by defender dropped from 25/20% (system idle vs distributed computing trying to load all cores) to 16/12% after a reboot that was steady for at 10 10 minutes. Then at some point over the next hour (not sure exactly because I was fighting with something else and only noticed it later) it dropped to an idle load cycling between 0 and 16% at seeming random. In pulsing load mode it doesn't appear to be lagging the system even when it spikes.
Considering it should be shut down completely and running 2 AVs at once is never a good thing I still need to figure out how to hammer a stake through it's heart again though.

Apparently I spoke too soon, it's ramped back up to a steady 15-16% load and lagging the system again.

Definitely spoke too soon. Defender ramped back to the 25%/2 cores load level while overall lag amd various 'insane' issues (eg explorer restarting repeatedly for a few minutes before fully loading, some applications failing to load parts of their UI - most commonly text) proliferating and getting worse with each start.  Right now the only question on my mind if if I should just restore to a backup from a few days ago to get a reasonably well functioning system in the short term (and then experiment with upgrading to 1809 or 1909 to see if I can get it in a patch appliable state again - 1803 is about to be EOL so I can't stay there for any length of time); or bite the big bullet and do what I should've a bit over a year ago, restore to a backup from before defender got hosed in the first place, patch to current and then extract/restore current user data separately.

I abandoned Defender many years ago in favour of Kaspersky, because it did the same thing with Win7 for me: hogged a huge amount of CPU every afternoon, despite being told to cease and desist.
I've been running 1903 on Desktop and Surface for a while now, and have seen no ill effects at all.

For some reason, half of my Azure environment stopped working.
I got some Web Apps that simply won't start.
I get some "HTTP Error 502.5 - Bad Gateway" and "The specified CGI application encountered an error and the server terminated the process."
Sometimes it starts, after like five minutes of loading, if I don't get a "500 - The request timed out".
I've added some poor man's logging which tells me it's not MY code that's running slow 
I even redeployed the application to a complete new Web App, something I've done a million times over, and it just won't start (but with another weird error message).
It worked two weeks ago 
Yesterday, I spent the entire day fixing a bug that (I guess) was some deadlock.
It always worked up till yesterday.
The DevOps builds failed yesterday as well, since the default .NET Framework was changed from 2.2 to 3...
My guess is that this is something similar, but that's almost not possible since it still works sometimes...
That's two days spent fixing "sudden" bugs and I have no idea where they came from (and so far I don't know how to fix them either)
UPDATE:
I FOUND IT!
Or at least, I know where the problem is, not exactly what it is.
Apparently, it has something to do with Application Insights
I guess I'll just do without it, for now.

Fair enough 
I can't deny I've build up some negative karma in my life 
That time I hard coded "if (user.Name == "Some name")" (because the code worked for everyone except him) alone is worth decades of bad luck

It could have been worse, if you had written that little gem in VB

Actually, it was... I just translated it to C# because this is CP and I'd like to keep it civil

So, you definitely deserve your fate
One day, you'll end up in one of those groups:

I've never had issues with AI, so I'm not sure why it's giving me such a hard time now.
It's also all automatically configured by Azure, so I can't really do anything with it.
No. 1 on the list is checking if I have some long running code, like connections to external services (especially KeyVault, which takes around 30 seconds on my local machine).
Step 2 is trying a redeploy.
Step 3 is add some extra logging.
I also just installed a Let's Encrypt test certificate, so I thought that might've been the problem.
Then there's checking if a deployment to a new Web App works (which it didn't).

Step 666 was to disable AI

All current "AI" is just machine learning.
So yeah, I think it's better to be naturally dumb than to be a marketing buzzword
Luckily, I can (almost) always trust my natural intelligence

They did a great job. Nobody would want a trained monkey to drive their car, but very many can't wait to hand that job to a tiny computer that works with several orders of magnitude less neurons than that monkey.

Mosquito's are still the deadliest animals to mankind ever, even above humans (and not for lack of trying).
Bees, on the other hand, are far more important for sustaining entire ecosystems.
Ants can take on much larger enemies by working together.
Spiders can shoot friggin webs from their butts!
Insects are pretty awesome despite their lack of neurons (awesomer than humans, no doubt)

Isnt 2.2 are very old and outdated so called "legacy" version?
The ones who arent updating regularly are the damned in the M$ universe.

I'm assuming it's .NET Core, so 2.2 was the most up-to-date version until last week.
