Ok, it seems that the starting method of vino-server is changed with Jaunty, or 
something similar.
With the new method, the vino-server process (without any arguments) is always 
started by Startup Applications, even if the  option in 
System->Preferences->Remote Desktop is disabled; enabling this just instructs 
the existing vino-server to listen to the 5900 port and accept connections.
With the old method, I think, System->Preferences->Remote Desktop used to 
enable its own vino-server process (the process with arguments).
Because of a bug in the upgrade procedure, for the old users, both of the 
processes are there, causing the problem with the cpu.

Comparing a new user created after the upgrade to Jaunty (not presenting any 
bug) and the old one, created before the upgrade (with the bug), I found a 
feasable workaround. To adopt the new method:
1) delete the .desktop file which refers to vino-server in the folder 
~/.config/gnome-session/saved-session; and
2) enable "Remote Desktop" in Startup Applications;
3) restart the session (logout & login).
