GNS3 doesn't have anything like an 'idlepc' value for ASA's. The instructions I've found when googling on how to get the ASA images working always include a link to a CPU limiter application you run and attach to the process gns3 spawns for the ASA.
[edit]
Here ya go - scroll down to the CPU Usage section. It has instructions on how to limit for both windows and linux.

Thanks bermovick I started using BES last night, I see today that BES seems to do a good job.

Since I don't bother keeping up with all the acronyms in IT, what does BES stand for? Last time I looked it up, it stood for Blackberry Enterprise System, which I am quite sure has nothing to do with Cisco.

Thanks for the links. Funny as hell name though for that application.

on win 7, make sure you run BES as an administrator. Otherwise, it won't be able to act on the processes.
