I used to often see CPU load at 100%, and for more than a few seconds (indefinitely?), and IIRC, top showed that it was DBUS / HAL (I don't recall exactly which process it was, and I don't have a very good understanding of DBUS / HAL). Doing something like '/etc/init.d/dbus restart' would drop the load back to normal. I don't think I've seen the problem recently. Currently at 2.6.25.
