I experienced the same today on a 2019 13-inch MacBook Pro. I only saw the process in htop with high CPU usage stuck at the same value for several minutes, but not showing in Activity Monitor. I quit and started htop again and it appears to be gone. If I filter for colorsync it shows a number of processes, among them colorsync.display, with CPU usage at 0%.

htop output filtered for “colorsync”

This may just be a process that gets stuck in htop for some reason.

Update 24th of February 2021: experienced the same on a M1 MacBook Air. Restarting htop removed it from the top CPU-consuming processes listed there.
