It's common for external USB devices to use quite a few CPU cycles. I don't know what's normal, however.

My USB hard drive at full tilt pushes my CPU quite a bit.

The only solution I can think of would be to see whether some USB cards do more processing before it gets to the processor. But I'm purely guessing.
