Bug description:
  using 0.1-0~5~natty1 on mostly up to date natty system, when running
  the indicator-multiload with with just cpu monitor and the default
  update interval of 500 milliseconds, I see (via top) that compiz usage
  when generally idle goes from either 0 or 1% of CPU to 3 or 4% of CPU.
  Reducing the update interval does seem to have an affect.

  I realize that 
  a.) top is not scientific
  b.) there could be something I'm missing here
  c.) saying "300%" (in the subject) is not scientific
