One more voice to sing the song :-p I have a p4 with 2.6 Ghz and2 times 500 of ram runing in paralelle Yet I have noticed this problem seems to be related to the graphics in ubuntu rather than to the cpu monitor its self As i get the same kind of processor abuse with any and all graphical use, for example movies that I can watch in windows 2000 ( full screen) with high yet acceptable cpu usage (60->80%) in ubuntu even in small aplets ittakes 100% of my cpu and even often leaves me with several seconds of delay for any other programes I might use ; and in full screen the picture and sound will desync and inter reaction with any programes becomes a time warp game
