Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-system-monitor

When looking at the CPU% both cores are bouncing from 11% to 80% when the only process running taking up CPU time is gnome-system-monitor at 18%. Are my CPU cores being taxed? Is this valid data? I'm using Ubuntu 10.10 the Maverick Meerkat
