30% is not bad... depends on what it is doing and for how much time. My experience is that it can pop up to as much as 90% (on a slower CPU like 166 Mhz) but only for a split second. At idle (no one doing anything) it should be using no CPU.

30% seems qutie high to me.
What are your Zope pages doing and how many people are hitting them?
