Fission is still a very nice editor, though; and reasonably priced.

Yeah, if you look at the feature list, Fission doesn't measure up to Peak or Amadeus or whatever. That's not the point. Fission is *extremely* good at what it does. Plowing through a bunch of audio and deleting boring bits and ums is about three times as fast as Garageband. Fission is smart about keeping the selection sticky but not too sticky, and the way it handles regions of audio is smarter than the marker systems in other apps. It also has great keyboard shortcuts.
This is a fun app, and I've found it to be totally stable on Snow Leopard, which is a lot more than I can say for GarageBand. Absolutely worth the price. I have zero affiliation with Rogue Amoeba and have never bought one of their products before, I just love this app.

I own both but rarely even open Fission now. Fission has a rather obtuse and obscure interface slowed down by all the visuals. Pity, it showed early promise.

The interface is clean and easy to comprehend and I've never experienced a problem due to a bug. Fission has been a solid and reliable tool. I highly recommend it!

Fission has a lot to like about it, but frankly I've been disappointed with the slow pace of bringing it up to a decent basic audio editor. It's main competition, the similarly-priced Amadeus Pro, blows it out of the water in terms of editing.
Fission's big selling point is that it can do lossless editing, but with editing left on such a very basic level, users quickly run into the wall.
Depending on the file format you're routinely having to edit, it's still a good value (when it's on sale via a bundle) -- but other programs like MP3 Trimmer and the aforementioned Amadeus do more for around the same price or less. I often use Fission to trim the "ends" off an audio file I recorded with Audio Hijack Pro, and I'm sure this is exactly what Rogue Amoeba had in mind for it. But a computer program working with digital audio files should be able to do more than what I could do with a razor blade back in the "tape" era.
I'm not looking for Fission to evolve into a full-blown audio editor, but a few key things like being able to join audio files, insert silence (now -- a year later -- finally addressed!), and cross-fade would bring this program up to the standard of a good utility tool for basic lossless audio editing, and justify the price.

I could split them using a cue file, and now it won't even open FLAC files...

the only way to stop the high cpu is to close fission.
i have tried aiff and mp3 files with 1.52, 1.61 and 1.62.
i have an C2D 2.4Ghz processor with 4GB ram.
it would be nice if they would fix this problem.
