Could be something else is taking CPU. Run Task Manager (taskmgr) and check if bitcoin.exe is getting >90 CPU. If not, see what is. Sometimes a page will have a broken javascript that makes your browser waste most of the CPU.

If it already went back to normal, could be a fluke. Randomness bunches up sometimes.
