Default Resource meter tells porkies?

High, I was around a friends house the other day, and he has this strange
behaviour of system monitor.

Some software, he showed me freecell, but it does it at other times as well,
seems to make the processor usage on the graph go to 100 percent and stay
there, but the little resource figures pull back once the activity dies down
and are what you would expect from a 233mhz machine, though thereafter the
machine seems jerky.

is this some known bug of the utility, or is this some early warning of a
potential problem.
