High CPU usage on battery



I have a ThinkPad 765D running OS/2 v4, fix pack 5. When I run it on
battery power and the battery metter program is running, I sometimes see
high CPU usage. When the system is idle, I may see more than 1/3 CPU time
in use with the CPU stuck in its slowest speed. When allowed to adjust its
speed, I see idle CPU usage of 8 to 10% -- more than twice the normal when
plugged in.

It just seems to be the battery meter program. Has anyone else seen this?
