David -

I run SAH on several machines here (see stats under hbbs at bellsouth.net) 
but I don't ordinarily run xsetiathome unless I just want to see how my 
total is coming.  I don't leave it up because it takes too much cycle 
time.  On this Athlon 750, SAH running at nice 19 gets about 96% CPU as 
seen in top, but if I start xsetiathome that goes down to 50-65% while 
xsetiathome and X take up almost all of the rest.
