This is coming from the A/C drag torque calculated
which drives an airflow adder. Apparently the excess
air is way more than you need. Possibly because the
idle has been "fixed" before by some shade-tree
method, possibly because your motor torque:airflow
relation is whacked from mods and/or metering error.
Getting some degree of A/C "cruise control effect"
is not uncommon. In my experience, which is only
a few vehicles, the A/C torque model is not the
problem but low-end torque -> airflow is easy to
get messed up. Especially if the motor has a bogus
airflow situation.

It most likely will need a do-over. Idle speed would need to be set, blade positioned, drilled to get the IAC counts right with AC off, idle trims close to zero, then dial in the AC airflow adder/AC tq.
