BTW:
on my system the sidebar has slide show running, it is replacing the picture
every 15 seconds (default.)
Realize you get spikes even in diagnostic mode (should prevent sidebar).
Could there be any other item that is 'refreshing' a picture such as a
screensaver that is partialy running or some 'live' web item on your desktop
(stock ticker,RSS feed program etc).
Another thing to try would be to create a new user and see if that new user
still has the spike. If it did not then it is in your user configuration
rather than in the 'system' configuration.
