Below are 4 kernels that I have tested to see what works ok and what don't. The 2 3.0 kernels both were extremely slow, and the 2 2.6.40 kernels were both faster and more responsive. Using the latest 2.6.40 does still have X use up some CPU but haven't seen it get past 25% compared to the 3.0 kernels both seem to go up past 50% ore more. Seems whatever is the difference in the kernels (diff in how built?), or whatever the difference in what they are built against might be the issue, or a combination thereof. Figure that out and might be onto something. Maybe others can try same thing and see what they get.
