Bug Description
After installing 12.04 64 bit the average load is continuously high (above 1) while idling and the temperature is about 5-10 degrees higher than in 11.04. If performing a few tasks the machine jitters and, for instance, music plays with interruptions.
Tried Lubuntu, also 64 bit, and there is no such problem. There was no such problem in 11.04, so I filed this against Unity.
The system is basically useless.
The machine is a Thinkpad Edge Core i-3

Enabled "proposed" repo and updated, which has brought the load wee bit down, as well as the temperature, to the point where the fan is not running all the time, but only every 3 minutes
