I also see that for Ubuntu 9.04.
Details: Athlon 64 4200 dual core, resample-method = src-linear, kernel = 2.6.28-11-generic
PulseAudio takes ~20% CPU when playing audio through amarok, and about 5-7% CPU when no audio is playing, which seems excessive. It has almost as much accumulated CPU usage as X.org :) (currently 68 minutes for PulseAudio, 82 minutes for Xorg).
