CPU extremely busy with high percentage of system processes

Hi Gurus,

I have a Sun system (an NFS client) having CPU problem
now. The system/kernal processes have consumed 50% to
70% of the CPUs. Here is the info from TOP:

"CPU states: 7.0% idle, 20.0% user, 72.9% kernel, 0.1%
iowait, 0.0% swap Memory: 1024M real, 479M free, 152M
swap in use, 1639M swap free"

The user processes seem fine in either 'top' or
'/usr/ucb/ps -aux', and they don't consume much CPU.

Any idea? Thank you!
