@ringoj, Thank you for the suggestion. You are correct I already have the "Sync playback to display" set.

I had the same issue, 25-30% CPU when idle. I decided to mess about with some addons that were installed. I came across one called GA Checker. I ran it and disabled everything it came up with. After restarting XBMC, CPU usage down to around 4%, with the odd spike to around 13%.
I understand GA Checker looks for addons with google analytics code. I guess these addons could have been relentlessly trying to phone home or something. Removing these addons has helped me and now hopefully somebody else too.

1) Enable / disable vertical sync
2) Disable unwanted views
