You can tune this using the Windows shortcut settings (or a PIF file).

I run Windows 2000. I can't notice any difference in the performance of 
other programs when InstantTrack is running. The Task Monitor's performance 
pane agrees with me, just a few percent utilization, with or without 
InstantTrack running. Probably Windows 2000 does a better job of sharing 
processor time than Windows 98. No surprise there.
