Yes, Zoom meetings are bad for me as well, even though I can usually use my computer without issue for many hours per day.

It could be a number of things, or a combination of them.

- increased network activity to send/receive the audio/video information
- increased PC CPU / video card usage to encode / decode the video/audio streams
- reaction to the video camera itself
- reaction to the video signal being sent from the camera to your computer

I will note that I do far better with audio conferencing, when I only have to deal with my microphone and whatever network traffic is involved with that.  Although even with this, I had to go through several microphones until I found one that was benign enough to use for long periods of time.
