I see this sometimes when someone complains about poor network performance. There is a loop in the network and its driving performance to the ground. Finding it is sometimes a pain, and I wont cover that in this post. But how can you know for sure if there is a loop?

It's been more than 50 hours since last call, the CPU utilization
data collected may have wrapped around and result in high

1 sec avg: 1 percent busy
5 sec avg: 1 percent busy
60 sec avg: 1 percent busy
300 sec avg: 1 percent busy
How can you know there isnt a loop?
