It could be some [weird] cron job or something. Try this to obtain top's
snapshots to a file in background while playing:
$ top -b -d 10 > top.txt &
$ nifty-game
After some 40 secs os sluggishness, exit the game, kill top ("pkill
top") and check top.txt. Look for a high cpu usage process, on the last
2 or 3 listings.
