It's happened before (since Natty was released) where the CPU fan would spin up and the CPU usage would rise (as I could see on Syspeek) and never come back down, in the past I thought it was from my meddling with Plymouth and Kernel setting, but on this Natty install neither of those things have been done. Now my CPU idles at 30-60% even with no other programs running, and the boot time has increased dramatically along with this problem.
I ran top -n 1 | head -n 12 to look at the processes and their usage, which is what lead me to udev and here's the output:

Ubuntu release: Natty
Udev version: 167-0ubuntu3
I expect the CPU to idle around 1-3% like it does before this bug and boot-up time to be around 20-30 seconds...but once this starts the CPU goes up to 30-60% as stated earlier and boot times go into the minute-and-a-half range
