There are 2 things that will make your Virtuoso install to use 100% CPU in KDE 4.8. Both are normal.

- Virtuoso is indexing files.
- Virtuoso is indexing mail.

1. To counter the heat, run the following command as root:

echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/ondemand/ignore_nice_load

That will stop your processor speed to scale up, if it gets used by Virtuoso.

2. See what Virtuoso is doing.

- If you have a "&" like icon in your system tray, Virtuoso is indexing files.
- If you don't have that, run akonadiconsole and look for a resource named "Akonadi Nepomuk Feeder". If it's indexing mail, leave it alone. It will stop working when you are using the computer and it will resume indexing when you leave.

The third cause (Virtuoso eating CPU like crazy) shouldn't exist in KDE 4.8. Check if you have Akonadi 1.6.90 or higher.
