[Novalug] Virtual box cpu usage

Under Fedora 9 I have VirtualBox running
a winXP pro session.  I have few bkg procs
running on winXP.  If I'm not doing any
windows tasks the task manager shows V low
cpu usage.  Yet in this "idle state", top on
Fedora 9 shows VBox is using 30-35% of one 
core of my system.

This is my first experience with VBox.  Is
this type of idle cpu usage typical?
