I have been noticing that my D800 laptop has been running hot(temp)

Investigating a bit, I noted that I was pretty much always running at a
load of about 1. The cpu-freq applet seems to take a quite a bit of
horse power. This was confirmed when I shut it off and my box cooled
off quite a bit.
Is this expected behavior?

My computer always comes up at full frequency. I let it load programs
initially and when things that I use are up, I change the frequency via
the applet to 662 MHz vs. the max of 1.52 GHz.
If you left click (or tap) the mouse around the applet, you can select a
lower frequency from the applet choices.
I would not guess it is the applet, but something determining the best
frequency for the computer load.
