I think there's a possibility that this is the same bug reported here:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1634592&group_id=67789&atid=518973
That report is from a AlBook G4 owner, so it lends credence to this being a general CPU usage issue, and not a MacBook-particular issue.....
