Does anyone knows what MP process on Big Sur is?

Does anyone knows what MP process on Big Sur is and why it uses 100% CPU load?

Also it says under Architecture that it is Intel not Apple.

Device: Macbook Air M1.

Never seen that one before, what you can do is select the process (click it) and select the information (the i in the circle) button at the top. Next to the kill process button. Should give you more information on the process.

Not sure, but I would double check for malware. Because it's running as root user and as you pointed out it's, using Intel Architecture so I suspect it's not part of macOS if you're on an M1 (plus its not running on my mac mini, which is Intel, but on Big Sur).
