I can confirm the same issue here after upgrade from 9.04 (x86_64, gnome, 100% CPU utilization, I've remove all the eye-candy effects)
I usually can kill -9 ssh'ing from another machine, and that, at least takes me to the login screen.
One really interesting thing I noticed today was that after removing openjdk and having sun-jdk (due to another issue) as my default seems to really really reduce the CPU usage.
Are you guys using any open-jdk java software the moment the freeze happen?
