You have been subscribed to a public bug: There are multiple mentions of kworker consuming a system but not enough information to act on. We had to shut down the system with 20+ instances of kworker. Any idea of how or what to expect in term of a fix or a means to stop the proliferation of the process? We are using the latest Natty in the clasic mode on a x86 32 bit machine. We don't even know what the kworker is supposed to accomplish and there is no system documentation.
