i had the same problem, having console-kit-daemon usgin about 10% of CPU, and growing.
I saw (thx to "lsof -c console-kit") that console-kit-daemon wrote very often (about every 0.2 sec!) to his logfile (/var/log/ConsoleKit/history) an apparent login/logout from user 1000 (which is myself!) while i did not logon/off:

1227922049.237 type=SEAT_SESSION_ADDED : seat-id='Seat1' session-id='Session3358' session-type='' session-x11-display='' session-x11-display-device='' session-display-device='/dev/???' session-remote-host-name='' session-is-local=TRUE session-unix-user=1000 session-creation-time='2008-11-29T01:27:29.171247Z'

[and so on...]

i do not have any crontab for uid 1000. So i don't know what made such a stress on console-kit-daemon.
