Hm. OK, I did so; no apparent change, but will watch it.

Interesting that Task Manager reports CPU usage in the 30s, but sorting by CPU 
shows System Idle Process in the 90s (with Task Manager using the rest). I'm 
guessing that this is dual-core fuzz, though one might have guessed that Task 
Manager would have been updated to be consistent by now. Yes, I have "Show 
processes from all users" checked. Some Googling doesn't find me anything, but 
that's 'cause of all the folks asking whether 40% means 40% of one or 40% of 
both (i.e., it may be in there but I don't see it).
