Unfortunately I don't have an answer for you, just wanted to tell you what was happening to mine to give you some data points on a phone with similar programs.
One thought that did just occur to me...could it be the GPS as the problem? Maybe it's trying to find a satellite too often. You might try turning off the GPS for a day and see what happens. *shrug*
Edit: Just read your post about GPS...you are right that it shouldn't be trying to run except for when a program is accessing it, but something is obviously causing a problem.

I saw a few other posts abot people having the battery heat up a bit more since the upgrade which prompted the response from Samsung to that person that it has happened to a few... This leads me to believe something is not kosher in the new ROM.
It's good that most here have an understanding of ROMS etc, but for those of us who are ROM ignorant, we just want the phone to work and work like it should. I personally have learned an awful lot here and thanks to EVERYONE for all of the helpful information. I FINALLY got my phone to where I liked it up until I upgraded last night. Now these few things are really bugging me. So if I seem a bit at odds, I have inverted a LOT of time into tweaking this phone to my liking.
