right after I posted this, I thought I'd give Tweetdeck another try.  I'd used 
it before, but the memory leak it had kept me from using long term.  But I 
thought it had been a while since I used it so I needed to experience it again. 
 So, I installed AIR again and then Tweetdeck.

With all apps sitting idle, Tweetdeck consumed anywhere from 6% cpu to 35%, all 
the others usually sat at 0 but would sometimes spike to 4%

This is indicative all all the Flash/Flex apps I've used.  I've been in demos 
before where the fan kicks on while a web page w/flash is sitting idle.

Granted, this is running on my mbp and Flash has never been known to be speedy 
on apple products.
