Hi,
at first you should find out which process takes the cpu time. Is it the database 
kernel process ("kernel.exe")? If yes, maybe you run into an endless loop inside the 
kernel. As far as I can remember we had have an endless loop in some situation using 
long columns. A kernel update would help in this situation. Or, if you use dbprocs you 
might have a self-programmed endless loop inside your dbproc?

Possible traces to track down the reason are:
- jdbc trace (http://sapdb.2scale.net/moin.cgi/JdbcTrace) to find out what your 
application is doing   
- vtrace (http://sapdb.2scale.net/moin.cgi/vtrace) to find out what the database 
kernel is doing
- there is also a tool x_cons for analyzing the kernel and for tracking down 
performance problems, but it's difficult to undertand. Maybe you give it a try.
before starting your application:
x_cons <dbname> reset all               //resets internal counter
x_cons <dbname> time enable             //activate time measurement

if you run into the performace problem:
x_cons <dbname> show all                //you should pipe the output into a file

HTH,
Marco
