http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=144827 I found it on kde.bugs.org after about half an hour, but it's not really what I thought it was. It's a report, not a patch. The reported level is ~30 interupts per second. The most specific action identified is to stop the Analyser running when amarok is minimised - which wouldn't reduce wakeups any further if you've already disabled the Analyser, though it's certainly a good idea. Other points are mentioned which might be helpful leads, but they're not so specific.
