Why? WHY? WHY?!?!?

Dear Apple,

I dont use your mail, calendar, and addressbook any more. I had tried calling your help desk and nobody understands how to fix (see pic: showing the huge hoggy performance allocation). Its so so so bad. I tried activating Mail, Addressbook and Calander today, since there was a new update. No, I was wrong. I thought you might of fix this... Again, and sadily enough, I am not using your applications that seem to be rock solid about a year ago. I refuse to use them, as I would like to hang on to my Macbook Pro and not let it get murdered by these resources burning it up. BTW, the numbers you see above are low considering it has actually jumped over 4,000! Crazy, Apple. Just Crazy.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X El Capitan (10.11.1)

If you want help here... Post the output of Etrecheck here. That tool will provide you (and us, if you post it) with a report of the configuration, and the tool attempts to sanitize any confidential information from the report. Then boot through Safe Mode. That boot avoids loading add-ons, and it clears boot caches. Then reboot normally, and see if this clears. Then look for errors in the Console.app tool. There'll be some cryptic and scary-looking messages logged there and a number of those message are entirely normal. For what you're specifically reporting here, look for repeating blocks of errors. Post one example of each repeating block here, checking for any confidential or sensitive data before posting that data here here, and please do not post multiple copies of blocks and please do not post more than a hundred lines or so in total. Also make sure you have complete and current backups, as unfortunately one of the causes of problems can be flaky hardware.

You need to uninstall Clean My Mac http://macpaw.com/support/cleanmymac/knowledgebase/how-to-uninstall-cleanmymac-3

Also the FitBit software is incompatible with OS X and has been known to cause problems.

BobHarris already posted the link up there ^^^^

You need to register your Apple ID for the free account I'm guessing. I have a paid account so I'm not sure.

You need a free Apple Developer Account to use BugReporter. It can be associated with the same email address that you use for your Apple ID, but it is is separate from your Apple ID. It is Free. <https://developer.apple.com/register/index.action>

The paid Apple Developer Account that dialabrain's has gives additional benefits, such as the ability to actually upload and sell Apps for Mac and iOS via the various Apple App Stores.
