I had a similar problem to OP (with Gmail set to retrieve every 20 minutes) ... BUT

Gmail wasn't the problem. I turned off 3G, uninstalled Battery Icon and stopped some sort of indexing (found in another thread). THAT fixed the problem (one of those three or a combination) - down to 8-20 mAh idle and I can use the phone a whole day without having to recharge.

Do you have Battery Icon installed?

devel-su
rootme

/sbin/reboot
Your device will reboot and then play around and check out if your Idle decreases, it has dramatically descreased my Idle usage, from 50-60mA to 14-23mA

Referring to the picture above, I wonder if it's normal to observe this periodic peaking as high as 180 mA during when idling under 3G connection. I can't seemed to trace the cause of this unless it's FasterN9 that we are talking about.

Can we adjust a config file to create a log that would show which program(s) are causing the battery drain?

My battery consumption averages from 192mah to around 320mah. This of course translates a standby time of 4-6 hours. I love my N9 and I am getting a second one soon but I really cannot deal with this problem.

Take note I disabled inter connection to experiment if this 3g or wifi is causing the problem but the difference is about 20-40mah in consumption.

Please help me!

This might not help, but try putting the phone on power saver mode throughout. You will need to connect to ur 3G network, WiFi manually the first time, but the phone seems so much faster, and is able to hold charge for much much longer!!! And its also super slick and smooth...
