Urxvt takes up 14-17% of the cpu while running mplayer, which is pretty high considering that it will use less than or equal to 1% normally. The strange thing is that when I hide/background the "mplayer urxvt window" inside a gnu screen the usage will go back to less than or equal to 1%.
This is not a problem in other terminal emulators, btw. Tested in xterm and aterm.
Any ideas to what might cause this?

Is mplayer constantly writing sth to that urxvt window? I can reproduce it when urxvt tries to emulate 'the matrix' and produces hundreds of lines of info about alignment / sync, "to many buffered ptys" etc.
Try to quiet down mplayer.

Well, the following line is active:

Will this make urxvt take up so much resources? I can't recall this having been a problem in the past ...

urxvt behaves similarly (gets resource-hungry) when I download a bunch of small files with wget and I get hundreds of:
