Ah, found it: $ ps ax | grep sudo 18387 pts/3 R 3293:11 sudo updatedb 31096 pts/3 R+ 0:00 grep sudo
It seems I kicked off updatedb some time ago (3293 mins is 2+ days of CPU time). Sounds like maybe it's stuck somewhere....
Is there anything I can do to find out where it's stuck to fix it? I haven't killed the process yet (although I think I'll have to pause it to get some CPU back).
