I'm seeing SystemUIServer grabbing large chunks of CPU time and the user interface on my MB is quite slow when this is happening. It seems related to playing a selection in iTunes (almost always a podcast for me) while simultaneously downloading a podcast.

Stopping the playback in iTunes and playing back directly in QuickTime Player seems to stop the spinning.

Is anyone else seeing this?

Possible semi-related question: is there a way to defeat the scrolling/animation of the title that I'm playing in iTunes?

TIA.
