Burning cd's makes the computer really really slow

Ok I know the answer is somewhere out there but can't seem to find it.
I've got a 48x speed cd-recorder and whenever I start writing a cd, cpu usage 
goes up to 100%(well almost 100%, can't even play an ogg file properly).
Grabbing a copy of cdrtools-2 did help when burning iso's. Now i can burn iso 
images in just 3 minutes, but when burning bin/cue images using cdrdao the 
problem is still there(and it takes around 5-10 minutes for each cd). I've 
tried with dma enabled and disabled and played around with the drive settings 
using hdparm, but nothing changed.

Cirrus

hdparm -i /dev/hdc (if it helps)

/dev/hdc:
