With KGet 2.2.0 (KDE 4.2) from Ubuntu PPA packages I still have the extremely
high cpu usage problem with KGet.  I've had this same problem with KGet from
every version I've tried.

CPU usage is always high even when downloading over a slow 10 Mbit / sec link. 
Over gigabit lan it's almost impossible to max out the transfer rate because
CPU usage hits 100%.

With wget on the same files the cpu usage is at roughly zero percent.

It's a shame because KGet could be so good!  It seems silly that a file
downloader would bring a modern cpu to its knees.
