using much processor time

[J. David Boyd]

I compiled and run the latest CVS build on a SCO machine, and the CPU useage
just goes up and up.

I've run it as emacs -q, so no init files are loaded, but the User and System
CPU usage climbs every second, and the whole system begins to slow down.

I agree, SCO stinks, but we can't scrap it yet.  

Any idea at all how to troubleshoot this particular problem?  Just a point in
some direction?
