Mine was doing this and I tried to stop it (I don't really know how to 
do this), so in the end I let it go. It has now stopped. Could it be 
that it is indexing all of your files? I know that I have 600 gigs of 
data, and, if KDE4 was trying to index all of these files (photos, music 
and larger LibreOffice files that it would take quite a while to index them.

Maybe this is the problem? My CPU has returned to normal after a couple 
days of "churning". I also never log-out of my system.

Cheers
