why dont you check the v$transaction to see whether it is rolling back
or i mean it is still active.
Sometimes if a process is doing lots of reads on the database and causing lots of cpu spike it would be better you kill the process from the database first and then from the side unix also,we had these issues and had to kill those processes on the unix side also otherwise they keep taking resources.

Rebounce the database...
After shutting down database , check for any oracle process is still alive
by using
ipcs -mb
If it is still their kill those process by yourself (using ipcem -m ) or by
Unix admin. Sometime it does not go and then you have to reboot.
If shutdown immediate takes longer then use shutdown abort. Recovery will
not take longer at startup.

OS :hp-ux
oracle rdbms 8.1.7.4
there are certain processes taking lot of cpu ( some thing went wrong with
stastics last nite). which is causing almost a halt in production
database.these processes are killed from oracle but i can still see them on
OS .Cpu is still high .
I though! after killing them mpon might be doing some clean up work .cpu is
still high .
question : If I recycle this instance ,is it going to take long time to come
back . ( smon will do the job now ?)
or is "fast warm start" will help here to bring db up quickly?
thanks,
-Ak
