mutter is the window manager. The reason it would be using so much CPU
is because the openGL is being done in software and isn't hardware
accelerated. I know this is slowly improving but until we get HW
opengl in the driver unfortunately there's not much we can do as the
Moblin and gnome-shell interfaces both use mutter which uses clutter
for all the nice effects.

Out of interest what is the nvidia card?

Thanks for the report.

Cheers,
