On my PowerPC based PowerBook 14" background apps like Mail would consume 2-4% CPU quite often. Now on my Mac Mini with an i7 processor, it's about the same percentage!
2% of a contemporary processor it alot more than 2% of a 10 year old one.
So is Mail now doing alot more in the backgound than before? Or is this some artifact in the way CPU utilitation is measured?
