X is a bit processor-intensive, unless you use Beryl or Compiz which offloads the graphical processing onto the video card, utilising the GPU rather than the CPU.

 

I'm not an expert on that - I don't use graphical desktops on my machines.

That does look like X has got into an endless loop somehow, as it is using almost all your CPU capacity.

 

Does the problem persist after rebooting the machine? It's fairly likely to be a temporary issue - and I notice that your uptime is a couple of days.

Can you post some specs of your machine, including capabilities of the video card?

It is distinctly possible the X problem is only temporary. If you really can't restart the machine, use Ctrl-Alt-Backspace to just restart X or kill the X process by hand.

 

That might solve the problem, possibly.

I also try to reboot my system but the utilization of X is still high, is tomcat affecting my cpu utilization?
