I'm seeing the same behavior on an Acer Aspire One D150 (2GB RAM, Intel Atom N270 1.6GHz). Originally, I had upgraded from 10.04 Netbook to the release candidate and thought that perhaps my symptoms were due to a borked upgrade. I downloaded the final release and installed from scratch and I am still experiencing the same problems. From what I've seen, the main CPU hogs seem to be Mutter and the Ubuntu Software Centre. This machine runs Ubuntu 10.04 Netbook and Windows 7 flawlessly.

On a side note, I've also noticed that the Applications list is a little flaky. For example, I installed Chrome last night and used it a few times. Today, the Chrome icon shows under "Most Used" but it is not in the main application list (neither under "All Applications" nor in the "Internet" category). I've also lost the ability to add applications to the launcher (IIRC, the release candidate would let me do that by right-clicking on the icon). I'll look for another bug report that addresses these specific issues.
