If you don't already use it, download and run htop. It often gives me more info about rogue processes that don't seem to make sense in top.
Hi Bill,
There's more detail in htop but in this case I don't see any new clues.

I realize that everybody uses their machines differently, so their top and htop will probably not look like mine ... but it looks like firefox is swallowing up resources. That seems odd to me.
Attached please find snapshots of my own top and htop for comparison. It may be that you have different settings, which affect what is shown.
Just my own instinct or hunch here, not quite a guess.
