I've had this problem before, and it usually grew in magnitude until I had to reboot. Are you using a 64 bit distribution? This happened to me on Ubuntu 5.04 x86_64 and Suse 9.3 x86_64 and my problem was solved when i installed the normal x86 versions instead. Suse was giving me some error about processor frequency scaling, but I never found out how to fix it.
