What Operating system are you using?

Have you made sure you have indexed all your tables correctly?

When I developed my first mysql application it was using 70% of the cpu doing 
about 10,000 page views a day. Is is now doing about 120,000 a day and is 
running about 20-30% on the same box. I achevied this by adding proper 
indexes and also using sessions and cookies to store constantly used data.

Query caching may help
