The BPM Extension taking up CPU is another issue altogether, and only happens
when importing music, as it has to analyze the song to figure out the beats per
minute. An unfortunate consequence is that the computer needs to spend a lot of
processing to figure out this beats per minute for every song imported.

Status in Banshee Music Player: Unknown
Status in “banshee” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed

Bug description:
Binary package hint: banshee

While playing and minimized to the system tray, Banshee uses 65-70% CPU and also pushes pulseaudio CPU usage up to around 30%. Additionally, when using "next" or "previous" buttons Banshee CPU usage goes up to 150%. Importing approximately 6000 songs took over 20 minutes, although the first 3000 or so only took about 5 minutes.

System: P4 2.8 Ghz with hyperthreading, 2GB RAM

Tested with latest Banshee from Jaunty repos and also the Banshee Team PPA version.
