If you mean that the CPU is experiencing high load, then the thread
below is unlikely to be the cause:

Why? Because Thread.sleep doesn't use CPU time: it blocks waiting for a
signal from the CPU saying that it's time to wake up. It's still
possible this is the problem, if the Thread.sleep() call is in a loop
without much of a sleep, like this:

while(true) {
  Thread.sleep(1);
}

That would peg your CPU.

Why not look at the code in com.ericsson.eai.b2b.MUXServlet.java at line
506 and see what's going on?

That depends on what the problem is :)

You need to upgrade, but that's not causing your CPU load.

You need to use a tool such as top to find out which process is using
all your CPU: once you determine if it's Tomcat (process will be "java")
or Apache httpd (process will be "apache2" or "httpd" depending on your
system).
