Please see the attached output from the top command.
It reports 100% CPU, even though the listed processes
add up to nowhere near that.

Although the "user" and "kernel" values do change,
they always add up to 100%.

Load is high; and there are quite a few context switches,
system calls and faults.

Maybe gnome-session is trying to start some gui
process is a loop, but the process is crashing?
To see if this is the case, you can simply do,

truss -f -texecve -p `pgrep gnome-session`

the output should be obvious.

There also is significant use of system cpu time.
Who's consuming the system time?
What is reported by a kernel profile?

   # lockstat -kIW -D 20 sleep 20
