Or just set your screensaver to "low" priority.

I guess having full OpenGL acceleration means those great 3D
screensavers don't taxi my CPU. I have a dual-headed (2560x1024)
desktop running the "Atlantis" (whales and sharks in 3-D) screen
saver going all the time, including when I'm burning to my 4 CD
drives simultaneously! I could do that even _before_ I went dual
processor.
