Yes, I have observed this myself in Xcode, but it usually doesn't take more than a few hours. It was actually re-analizing all my photos (I have a huge library) and that used up 100% CPU for about 4 hours.
Got a tip for us?

On iOS 10 and up, whenever a device is restarted the battery usage information for the latest charge is erased from memory. At least that's my experience.
Yep. It was very annoying because sometimes I needed to restart the phone due to other issues.
Of course, planned obsolescence... We all think new devices are slick and fast compared to old ones but a few months back I started up a barely used and never updated iPhone 3G, it was amazingly smooth, fast and lovely to use. Hand-sized too. It's a shame the "X" wasn't a move back to smaller, thicker yet more ergonomic phone with a larger screen, rather than just another big (ie 2-handed use) phone.
Iphone 5S back to 10.3.3 , too many lag and bug
Iphone 6s back to 10.3.3 due to battery drain
Iphone 7Plus back to 10.3.3 too many LAG (mail) Bug and battery drain
New Iphone 7 IOS 11 battery drain fixed after 48Hs
Ipad Air 2 never updated and Will never do

Doesn't help - even if it did, having to lose everything is not a good solution.
Made no difference to me with my 6splus I’m using it and can see like 10% just drop off. Lasts half the time it used to do and can’t go back to 10.3.3 as I’ve updated my watch
I’m having overall good battery results but somewhat inconsistent. Saturday I fell asleep without charging. Just under 9 hours of mixed LTE and wifi usage with twitter and safari being the top two apps, along with 26 hours of standby total before it died. Overnight I lost 3%. Verizon iPhone 7 Plus.
Looks like Forbes has an article about this. Not sure how accurate their tests are, but interesting to read regardless.

Seems like more of an example of jumping to conclusions (as well as a mix of Occam's razor and Hanlon's razor) in action.

Unfortunately sites like that often have similar articles after almost any/every update, which makes them that much less useful. There are certainly some people experiencing some battery issues pretty much at any point, so if there is a more widespread issue it's harder to spot or confirm it based on those types articles that are there all the time essentially.
My battery life seems to be back to normal, after like 3 or four days it finally got straightened out.
By the way, the feature for scheduled fetch for favorited folders has been withdrawn in iOS 11.
The manual and scheduled fetch now will anyways work only for the main Inbox folder.
So you wont have any issue in battery on account of this.

Did that after trying a couple of things working with Apple support.
It fixed my freeze issues.
Yes, I lost everything but had backed up external on GDrive.
It did not fix my battery issue.
I have a number of other issues but are likely initial launch problems that have become the iOS norm.
My iPad Pro 12 g2 also has a battery issue - that remains an OTA update.
We'll see what happens.
Biggest complaint: all of these extensive and long animations. Even under Reduced Motion they are long.
Biggest complaint 2: even though set to auto-update, my apps won't all do this. Until you go into the App Store and manually trigger an update check, you have no clue that you have pending app updates.
Mine was just as bad... for about four days after updating. Then it just fixed itself.
I wish I could say the same.
Even with all non-essential stuff disabled it’s poor. Low Power Mode doesn’t seem to make much of a difference either.
