How are you getting that kind of CPU usage?  I have a Pundit, 2.2GHz
Celeron, 512MB ram, and Gentoo Linux.   When I watch TV, I get about 65%
CPU *USED*.   (35% idle) (MythFrontend and X are the ones using the CPU time)

I use720x480 for my resolution with my PVR250, and I"m using the
Winischhofer drivers, with the TV-Out selected..  I can't see any reason
why you're getting much lower CPU usage than I am, unless you're using a
lower recording resolution perhaps.

Ideas?
