When my host let me back up for 24 hours to fix the problem, I found that the Broken Link Checker plugin was the culprit on all my sites. Clearing the database tables for the plugin helped temporarily.</p> <p>To show what a difference the plugin makes, here's the CPU usage before turning it on:<br /> 34 queries. 1.224 seconds.</p> <p>And after turning it on:<br /> 44 queries. 30.251 seconds </p>
