Jan 10, 2014 7:46 AM in response to bryanfromrye brookby William Lloyd,How many tabs do you have open? This is most likely because you are viewing some sites which are chewing lots of CPU; typically the tab that is displaying. Consider keeping fewer tabs open as it does take a toll on CPU and battery life.

Jan 10, 2014 8:39 AM in response to kayewilkinsby bryanfromrye brook,I have watched Netflix a fair amount recently, but the computer had been shut off overnight and turned on this morning - would that still leave that much energy being taken up by video? At the time, I actually had no tabs open, just had Safari open without using it.

Jan 4, 2016 12:04 PM in response to bryanfromrye brookby Undercover101,I am having same issue on Early 2015 Macbook Pro once I installed El Capitan. Any browser is instantly over 100 even when just sitting with one tab like google. Really don't want to have to reload OS X if it is an easy fix. But disabled all add ins and uninstalled flash & silverlight completely
