[users@httpd] HTTP PROCESS CONSUMING 100% cpu

[Ravi Markil]

Hi friends

          I recently installed xampp 1.7.1 application which has apache
server.
          Starting the apache is consuming 100% of CPU starting from
20%,which is affecting the performance
          of my system.

           Please help me out.

        Last few lines from access.log

        127.0.0.1 - - [17/Nov/2010:12:28:40 -0800] "POST /jobs/check
HTTP/1.1" 200 4502
