I am trying to reproduce the problem so we have a complete bug report. I am not sure I understand the situation, here's what I did so you can tell me if it is right. I used a virtual box so I at least I get the steps right. - Boot with Live CD (hardy) - Start System Monitor to monitor CPU usage - Initiate Install from desktop icon The issue you raised is that the Live CD session and, by association, the installation process are abnormally slow. Looking into to it, you found that the ubiquity process is using up all the CPU, leaving little for the installation script doing the real install work.
Is this description accurate? If this description is not the scenario you reported, would you please detail the steps to reproduce? For my part, I have not noticed any abnormal behaviour, CPU usage was normal. Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
