It appears to be caused by Firefox. As the number of Firefox browsers that are open with pfSense increases, the higher the CPU utilization goes. The CPU utilization goes to very near zero when Firefox is closed and pfSense is viewed with Chrome.

not enough here to make this a legit bug report, feel free to start a discussion on the forum or mailing list and if a specific real problem can be found then a bug ticket can be opened. This just looks like what happens when you're viewing a bunch of SVG graphs, though that's excessive on that class of system, obviously Firefox is doing something not so nice.
