I would just like to ask about the cpu usage of ubuntu. It normally uses less memory (130MB minimum. 300MB maximum) using gnome. (but my main environment is e17, which uses only 120-150 MB.) However, the cpu usage is insane, comsuming 50-80% of cpu. (regardless of desktop environment.) Is there a reason for this. I've used different distro's of linux for a long time now,(2 years) and it's like this for every single one that I've tried. There is a attachment of gnome-monitor showing the cpu usage in e17 (which uses the same amount for gnome). Is this amount normal?
