Because I use laptop with battery everyday, I want to let Emacs more powersave. Get a better battery life.

Then why are you worried by the CPU usage?  This is similar to
performing redisplay of a portion of a window because the user presses
keys at 10 Hz rate.  If I press and hold the <RIGHT> arrow, I get
similar CPU usage (my keyboard auto-repeat rate is about 50/sec).
Each <RIGHT> keypress causes Emacs to draw 2 characters: the one from
which the cursor moves and the one to which it moves.
