I think I understood what the problem is:

a.) 2.2.11 (using 0.14) works when you erase the user folder
b.) 2.4.11 (using 0.14) also works when you erase the user folder
c.) When you are downloading torrents and decide to upgrade from
2.2.11 to 2.4.11 and do not erase the user folder, then that is when
the 100% CPU problem happens. (At upgrade there is a message that
warns the user that a backup is being made just in case the user
decides to downgrade because files are handles differently in the new
version.) Therefore, it seems that 2.4.11 cannot correctly handle a
2.2.11 user folder. I think the reverse is also true: 2.2.11 cannot
correctly handle a 2.4.11 user folder. Also, just by clicking on some
torrents on the list, the application crashes. Therefore, the solution
I found is to simply erase the user folder but of course you have to
re-download the ones you were downloading before.

Please note that the 100% CPU issue may not happen immediately, it may
take a few minutes/hours.

I use thepiratebay.org's torrent files.
