I am using it as a VST in Cubase SX3 and even in idle mode it is fluctuating between 9% and 12%! Is this normal?

B4 (the original) seems to add about 3% CPU usage in my system (P4 3.2 Ghz), B4II around 8%. This is in idle. However I notice only perhaps a 1-2% increase when I put both arms down on the keyboard.

In practice neither B4 version has ever struck me as CPU hungry.

This is also in Cubase SX3.
