I have a laptop, but I primarily use an ethernet connection and not wireless. I've noticed that the NetworkManager process sometimes (not all the time, and not consistently) likes to use 20-50% of my CPU time as well. To illustrate this, a screenshot is attached: notice that NetworkManager has used up more time, cumulatively, than any other process on the system.
