You need to raise your MTU and the CPU load will go down.

PS: I'm not sure which IOS version supports baby giant frames on 1841, not
all do.

L2tpV3 very useful feature, but cause very high load on CPU on reciever
side.
On 1841 10Mbit/s xconnect channel cause near 40% CPU load.
2Mbit/s channel load CPU near 10%.
Max. throughput on 1841 without shaping 28Mbit/s(FULL CPU load).
