This does not happen to me -- while in the background MacVim takes up 0% CPU, so I'm not sure what is happening on your machine. One "problem" I do know about is that if you move the mouse around on top of a focussed MacVim window it will starting eating CPU cycles in the range you mentioned. This is because MacVim is forced to handle "mouse moved" messages. A possible scenario is that there is some bug in MacVim where it still handles mouse moved messages even while in the background and that's what you could be seeing. This is mere conjecture -- I've not seen any hints of such a bug myself. Try moving the mouse around a bit with windows focussed as well as unfocussed and see if that makes any difference.
