i have a similar problem on my mini 9. it would be like comparing a runny nose to a case of pneumonia. with nothing but a terminal running top, 20 to 30 % cpp is used by netbook-launcher. the package seems to have always done this. my pc was shipped with 8.04; when i installed the netbook remix, it slowed down. after upgrading to 9.04, things ran well enough for my needs. now that i am using a pre release, i am poking around. some quick specs:
mem 2 gb
cpu 1.6 ghz
glxgears 300 fp5s (1000 when i watch the terminal window instead)
i have not touched a configuration file.
it seems silly that a package designed for underpowered machines is unable to efficiently idle.
