It seems that gnome-shell is busy all 20 secs (similar effect like yesterday with kernel-3.1.0-0.rc2.git7.2.fc16.x86_64 and Xorg).What does top show at those times and what is the hardware etc. Without that info, it could be anything from a cron job to you have really bad drives and the 20 second sync takes a lot of CPU power to do it correctly.
