Patience man.
Do you have Tight VNC installed on your <yuck>window$<yuck> box?
Are you using KDE native remote desktop client on your Breezy Box?
Is the connection encrypted (i.e. either or both boxes behing firewalls?
Are you trying to utilize the max resolution for your remote desktop or is
the issue
replicatable under either configuration?

Did you notice that TOP only showed krfb as using
<snip>
9846 egrantha 15 0 55968 18m 12m S 56.2 3.8 0:28.47 krfb
<end snip>
of your cpu.
