Yep, seen it. Don't have the idle problem myself (I always run a 
personally customized kernel anyway, and I always strip out the 90% 
which is not needed).

The thing which is odd to me is that going from 1.3 to 1.4 caused (at 
load) cpu use to practically double. I'll have to try running a plain bf 
server for a night and see if it's caused by DC. If it is, it's odd that 
it wasn't as much of a problem with 1.3.
