Have the same problem here too, Hardy Heron freshly installed and updated, Intel Q6600 and NVidia graphics card.
The problem is happening only in the resources tab too. If I go to the process tab, wait a bit and go back to resources tab, the processor goes back to 100% instantly. It is at 100% only on one core.
