Hello,

 Thanks for everyone who responded.
I'm including the sanitized config and a 'sh proc cpu hist'

 Yes, almost all traffic is at interrupt level, the procesess are sleeping.
No BGP on the router, just eigrp. The age of the routes when i last checked was over 2 days.
Yes, CEF is ON. Yes, flow-cache and flow-cache feature accelerate is on.

 The load is unusually high w/o ACL, w/o CAR.


 a TAC CE has analyzed the CPU profile output, the most cpu intensive functions were:

36.31%  process_throttle_off 
     (throttle is something like a self pretoction action..., this seems to be high... but i'm not a cpu profiling expert)
11.38%  scheduler


 Perhaps, i should remove the IP addresses  ;))

tnx for any ides
rgds
