190/191 server cpu utilization

I'm noticing higher usage from the server.exe component, it used to sit between 25 and 28% (of a quad core) which easily allowed running 3 servers off a quad core with room to spare, but now im seeing it jump as high as 40%. Is this jump intended and the server actually gets more performance? Or is this possibly a bug using extra cycles.
Anyone else noticing this?

Happens with and without Overmind, before someone blames it.

    If you open up the server profiler you will note an extra physics thread compared to 189. So yea, the server offloads some physics work on a second core.
