Thanks for pointing out page 2...I missed that the first time and ended up repeating what you guys stated. I was more or less replying to statements like Kameo, Gears, and MGS used X% of console power that I saw later in the thread.
As far as the 12 vgchartz example, that is a good example also. Could be an IE problem, vgchartz website problem, or 3rd party plugin like Flash or something. Or a combination of 2 or all 3. You could attach windbg and find out pretty quickly. Just google windbg if you are interested in finding root cause.
With my example I was just trying to point out that utilizing all resources is for the most part not considered a good thing, and with bad programming is easier than one would think.
