The two big resource hogs in my instance of windows 7 are system idle process and svchost. I am now at the point that I monitor resource use constantly. When the computer starts it uses 100% of cpu and 1.5 gigs of ram. Then it might calm down to 27 percent use, with 50-75 percent spikes. Honestly I have never seen an OS just hog resources for no reason. I have loaded linux on this computer...
