The pref.data file isn't any use to me without your full build tree, so
the best way to use it is to then run 'perf report -g' and investigate
where the highest CPU users are, and what calls them.  (it is
curses-based tool). 

The 100% busy CPU is because the LDAP server is single-threaded, so that
isn't really unexpected.

I hope this helps you make some more progress chasing this down.
