It's funny... I honestly thought this was a ITunes only issue because I was
never seeing any visible performance issues otherwise as I was debugging in
Safari.  Then I switched and tried debugging in Firefox... debugging in that
(as Doug points out) absolutely destroyed my machine and it took me about 3
mins to force a kill on Firefox once it occurred.
So, I guess I'll go back to Safari and put up with skipping music as opposed
to the alternative :-)  Going to look more into Shaun's suggestion of renice
maybe...  And I guess the difference between 2 cores on macbook pro and 8 on
the Mac Pro is why I never see this issue there.
