It is certainly because of the time sync as you can see in our dedicated FAQ section: https://tails.boum.org/support/faq/#index20h2 The mentioned IP is boum.org, which is in our pool for time sync. > Also last night at a later time I noticed Vidalia and > tails-security-(something) both using a lot of cpu, about 50% each. > After a few minutes I killed both processes.

Could you eventually give more context information, more precision on how it happened?
