Here's what I get from top:

Tasks: 103 total,   1 running, 102 sleeping,   0 stopped,   0 zombie
Cpu(s): 54.0% us, 43.7% sy,  0.0% ni,  2.3% id,  0.0% wa,  0.0% hi,  0.0% si
Mem:    508560k total,   469040k used,    39520k free,     6376k buffers
Swap:  1485972k total,    12476k used,  1473496k free,   307308k cached

  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND

    1 root      16   0  1564  520  452 S  0.0  0.1   0:00.87 init
    2 root      34  19     0    0    0 S  0.0  0.0   0:00.51 ksoftirqd/0

Which seems to imply that it's something with how krfb and Xorg interact...
