Did I miss something, or is this not concerning a 1 second spike to 100%? I do not see why this is problematic, and I'm a bit curious as to how it is...
I mean, the DB does use 100% CPU if it's available. And for a 1 second period, it could very well just be the sample time for the tool monitoring it....

Not even close. We currently have a database of 4 gb and 75 tables. One of our tables has over 2 million rows. Even this is small as compared to some of the other databases I have seen.
