Did you have automatic RSS updates enabled?  which release you were
using?

I think one of the RSS feeds had something that put RSS feed reader
into a loop and it would be good to identify what that was.  Do you
have the rss feed colder contents backed up somewhere?

I think Youtube and some other Flash stuff can occasionally cause more
than few minutes of 100% CPU usage normally.
