Ideally, CPU should be around 10% on an idle computer
Er, no. Well below 1%. If something is eating 10% CPU it's doing some real work, eg sending out spam, but slowly enough that it hopes you won't notice ... and anyone who blieves that "Ideally, CPU should be around 10% on an idle computer" is probably daft enough not to notice!!
