aaah - that makes sense. i have seen similar things before when reading battery
acpi data - it can consume a LOT of cpu resources on some systems if you do it
often (every second) and that is why the default is 30 sec.

i guess this is a combo of the way e reads this data and the kernel (in that
the kernel actually does a slow hw query every time).
