Default Re: CPU Usage at 100%

[ QUOTE ]
If you are running firefox, firefox is a memory whore. I have seen the memory usage climb to over 300megs of memory used. If you been using that, try closing it out and see if the CPU levels drop.

Excessive memory usage should cause swapping, which drives CPU usage down. That being said, it's a good idea to close any non-essential apps.
