I considered that - my 'top' measurement was taken with my VNC disconnected. I connected, started the video (an avatar trailer 1080p .mov), disconnected, and then used top in ssh. So no VNC (vino-server) impact to usage.
Also as noted, the xbmc.bin cpu% matched the user space cpu% time two (2 virtual processors), so it looked perfectly accurate - XBMC itself was consuming all that cpu%.
