The "grep" is searching everything under /etc (including pipes or whatever). The scope of the search needs fixing such that "grep" only searches ascii text files.
Whether 100% cpu means a lot depends on how many cpus you have fitted. To achieve 100% cpu on a single cpu and run a program to report the value is pretty unlikely.
