Applications seize up temporarily - System task at 30% CPU
In recent weeks I have been noticing frequent events in which my applications (e.g. Chrome) seize up for a short period — perhaps a minute or so — and then start working again. If I manage to switch to the task manager when this is happening I notice that the System task is using around 30% of CPU. This drops down to a more normal level as the applications start working again. It's happening frequently enough to be quite disruptive. Is there something I can do to fix it?
