Amarok 2.0.1.1 released

I have upgraded Amarok to 2.0.1.1 when I security-updated my Intrepid to latest release (as of 11th Jan, 2009) and the application itself looks nice and polished but I am a bit unhappy with KDE lately. The reason is PLASMA which is a resource hog in it's current state. I have an AMD x86_64 dual core 4200+ with 1GB of ram and Nvidia GT 6600 and plasma is taking up 32% memory and cpu usage spiking up frequently to 40%. Because of that I think my desktop seems unresponsive a lot of the times.
