By chance do you have an Nvidia graphics card. My test machine was doing the same thing. gnome-system-monitor using high 90% switching to resources tab would spike it to 100%. I did not have the nvidia drivers enabled. Once I enabled them and rebooted my system has stabilized.

I have confirmed that Top reads GSM as using approximately the same CPU% as GMS itself shows. excessive usage does not appear to be a display aberration. top, at 3sec refresh uses at most 0.7% to do basically the same job. I did turn down or off all the settings possible in GSM just in case there
