Suddenly after a reboot I find between 50-60% of my CPU used. I load

This is a dual-core AMD Opteron server with 2 gigs of RAM.
Who' s the genius who thought this would be acceptable? and how do I tame
these processes not to use more than 10% of cpu without uninstalling the
whole shebang? (provided those actually serve a useful purpose that I'm not
aware of).
Thanks in advance

In my case tracker-store acts like a fork bomb! After fresh boot I
shortly have a lot (about 50-100) defunct tracker-store and
tracker-extract processes each consuming about 5 MB of memory. I have to
manually kill them or I'm unable to launch any app form Gnome Shell. yum
remove is not an option because of dependencies. I confirm this behavior
on 64 bit box with Fedora 17, on 32 bit Fedora 17 all is fine.
I'm glad, I'm not alone with this problem.
