This is very typical of overuse. Digidesign's DINR instructions suggest 
multiple passes with much lighter processing per pass. I've found that 
produces better results. Even so, the point of diminishing returns 
approaches very quickly. In many cases I've chosen to live with the 
original source noise rather than accept the artifacts of software 
noise reduction.
