I don't think your result is particularly surprising - one of the guys at dbi 
services produced some startling figures a couple of years ago:

But I think it can vary enormously with the nature of the work.

What is the observed overhead of db_block_checking=TRUE (FULL) when running an 
UPDATE (1 to 3 columns) of almost all the rows of a table ?  I see a 30% 
increase in CPU time.
