Someone should note that it probably wasn't the fact that the CPU was
running at 100% that was the problem. It was probably that a large number
of processes were in contention for CPU time. This could be due to some
process spinning out of control and repeatedly forking new processes
(often referred to as a "fork bomb"). It could have been due to something
completely benign that would have worked itself out if you had just let
the box run for a couple of minutes (still annoying).
As likely as this might be, 20 mins of almost no response is too long
to put up with :-P
