Hi Shawn
Thank you for the response.
In order to pause the slave , the stop the sql_io_thread, and to unpause
they simply start the thread.
I have run "show engine innodb status" yes and the threads show 90% as
sleeping and then a few selects , all from the same table as it does a lot of
authentications for dial outs.
I will have a look at the results from SELECT * FROM
information_schema.INNODB_TRX; during the day as we get this issue regularly
and will provide feedback.
Regards

When you say pause replication, what command are you executing on the
slave?
Which end of the system is experiencing the high CPU usage: the master
or the slave?
Have you checked these resources to see what the InnoDB main or
background threads are doing when your CPU starts to spike? (you could
be in a massive rollback)
SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS
SELECT * FROM information_schema.INNODB_TRX;
