Or is it unusual? It is about the same jump that I'm seeing. I have setiathome running in the background (nice of 19) and on 3.4 it would still show about 90% of the cpu running top. On 4.0-stable, I am seeing the buildworlds jump from 2000u second to 3500u second and setiathome doesn't accrue any appreciable cpu time.
