Bug Description
Open SysMon by clicking on CPU indicator, or by running "gnome-
When it opens, navigate to "resources" tab (3rd one)
1st of all it loads very slowly, eating almost 100% CPU. But after ~5 seconds it settles down and eats ~ 15-20% CPU load.
But when I resize the window, it becomes hungry again, all the time until I drop the mouse.
The same happens when SysMon is maximized.
Screenshots are attached (in resizing & settled state).

Thank you for bringing this bug to our attention. Unfortunately a paper cut should be a small usability issue that affects many people and is quick and easy to fix. I'm afraid this bug can't be addressed as part of this project.
While this was definately a problem in Jaunty and earlier, this has been solved in Karmic[System Monitor 2.27.4],
System monitor doesn hog the CPU any more[cpu load is ~10%]. Hence not a papercut.
A paper cut is a minor usability annoyance that an average user would encounter on his/her first day of using a new installation of Ubuntu 9.10.
