Comment:

 OK - turned off using it for torrent tracking (and left it off for
 anything else torrent-related) after reading the blog - thanks.

 Now used solely for the TORbutton on Firefox, so it's only used
 intermittently now. Started Vidalia and used TOR to browse for a short
 while last night. This morning, TOR was back to hogging a CPU at 90-100%,
 despite having no intentional traffic during the night.

 Now I could solve this by stopping and starting TOR each time I need to
 use it for TORbutton, but the CPU hogging has only started recently and
 I'd rather have it run seamlessly...
