I think this is a poorly-conceived notion, though. Well-written
apps shouldn't beachball even when they are busy (well, not for
long, at least). And frequently, when you see a beachball, the CPU
is already 100% loaded, so it would probably be a bad idea to add
more load to the computer at that point.
In my experience, beach balling is often not due to CPU load, but
just bad design (ie blocking the UI thread) or CPU non-intensive
things like networking or reading from disk.
