I think you problem is probably fam. Have a look in your /var/log/messages 
and I think you will find it filled up with messages about fam not beeing 
able to read some file in ~/.kde. I changed something in /etc/fam.conf (some 
security option) and now KDE 2.2 doesn't use more CPU than 2.1. Please note 
that there might be some security issue here... I don't know.
