with top or htop, atd is the biggest user of the processor, with about 20%. Adding up all the processes gives a rough total of 30%. No idea of where the other 70% is going, yet the total at the top is 100%.
Could be the other 70% is spent in system calls or any of the other cpu usage categories reported in top's output (look at the line starting "Cpu").
Any idea what atd is up to? How can I find out? I did get a disk space warning the other day, but have freed up a load of space since.
Try running atq and see what it reports. It will only show your user's at jobs, but according to the man page, running atq as root will show you all the at jobs for all users.
