It certainly isn't NetworkManager as I don't have that - but when I let
Kdenlive render a video using the KDE job tracking (which means the plasma
panel animates) Plasma uses ~15-20% CPU and rendering takes significantly
longer. I can't speak for the other icons or animations but the spinner easily
takes >15% CPU when active on a quadcore with loads of RAM and CPU power. I
don't want to know how it harms laptops' battery.

Yes, I already removed the CPU and Network monitor from my plasma panels as
they, too, continued to eat loads of CPU. Without them and without any progress
indicator, CPU usage is an acceptable ~1% but once something is going on, 
usage of up to one full core is not rare.

There IS a nasty, cpu-using bug somewhere. Updating or recalculating something
too often, I dunno. Something.
