Each script is using a decent about of CPU.

I am not well versed with scripting, so I don't know what this mean.    Can anyone PLEASE help me to answer these questions:

+ Is this related to a particular plugin or widget or theme?
+ What could be the possible source of this issue, that is, which file should I look at to resolve this?
+ Can I fix this myself or do I need a php coder to help me?

Thanks!
