Your top shows 2 zombies. Start by finding them:
ps axuwwww | grep Z
Will be interesting to know who they are.

Thanks, Alex. I've since had to restart the machine twice. After the
first time I ran ps axuwwww | grep Z. At that time I had only one
zombie show up in top:
USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND
root 3571 0.0 0.0 0 0 tty4 Z< 16:37 0:00 [X] <defunct>
500 3802 0.0 0.0 364 108 tty6 R+ 16:45 0:00 grep Z
As soon as the machine slows down again, I'll run top, and in the
event of zombies, I'll run ps.
I don't think that the problem is anacron, as Andy suggested, as the
machine was up all night. I ussually don't turn the computer off at
night.
