The problem remains with fresh sources:

   PID USERNAME   THR PRI NICE   SIZE    RES STATE  C   TIME    CPU COMMAND
    12 root         1 171 ki31     0K    16K RUN    0  22:04 97.85% idle: cpu0
    37 root         1 -64    -     0K    16K CPU1   1   2:35 96.00% irq14: ata0
    11 root         1 171 ki31     0K    16K RUN    1  19:32  6.40% idle: cpu1

The rip is done by k3b, so the drive is accessed through the cam interface.
