What are your settings for Rebuild Spamdb? Are you using Schedule Cron? It 
could be that CPU is maxed out because its rebuilding the spam database. That 
is done from within the main ASSP process. I voiced my dislike over that. If 
that process crashes, it will take out ASSP. Plus you cannot re-nice the 
rebuild spam db process as its part of ASSP.

ASSP at times will use 100% CPU on start, but most times not during running. 
If you are seeing it during running, it is not rebuilding the spamdb and you 
are using schedule cron. It could be that. I have never been able to use 
schedule cron. It has some issues and more times than not using that ASSP runs 
at 100% to much of the time. Schedule cron seems to run away at times and 
restarting ASSP leaves orphaned schedule corn processes.

I just do not install or use schedule cron. Since rebuildspamdb.pl cannot be 
invoked outside of ASSP. I have to manually run that a few times a week or 
when needed. I used to have cron the actual Unix/Linux cron daemon do that a 
few times a day.

I am thinking about making something that posts to the web interfaces, and 
simulates me checking and running rebuild spamdb manually. Then I can have 
cron invoke that at intervals like before.

I have a feeling the 100% CPU usage your seeing is rebuilding the spam 
database, and/or schedule cron. If your using schedule cron, remove that and 
see if its still at 100%.
