A possible fix for high Finder CPU usage - beware of GIFs
Authored by: KalleK on Sep 13, '09 01:42:07AM

I also agree with zMan60. Let's see if Snowleopard is going to change anything.

I had the same problem for two days - Finder CPU usage at 95-106%. Reading this thread then inspired me to delete a GIF animation from the late 1990's (2 megs, downloaded two days ago to be used in a lecture) from the desktop. Deleting it did the trick.
