Mine is as well
I don't believe that number is a problem.

Crikey RTFM!
The system idle process helps Windows measure CPU usage as well as (supposed to) set CPU flags to indicate idleness. It's not actually using the CPU, it's more like how much of the CPU is NOT being used. You can't get rid of it and it doesn't decrease performance. Ignore it.

Yep, take whatever number is after System Idle process as how much isnt being used. Windows uses it a lot in things like performance logging.
