I ran into this issue as well as idleassetsd in my activity monitor was using 50GB/hr that led to over 700GB usage per day.


I contacted Apple Support and they recommended setting Wallpapers and Screensavers to a static image.

After restarting Activity Monitor idleassetsd stopped downloading as it is now at 0 bytes sent and recieved.
