I can confirm this, I just checked 2 of my machines which run identical
hardware and the Ubuntu one has FS sitting about 7% cpu all the time
and the CentOS box has it sitting at 0% (I can't even see it on the
screen). Both machines are idle.

So the moral of the story is that the OS/hardware recommendations are
made for good reason. Disregard them at your own risk.
