Higher than normal CPU utilization

I have noticed that my wordpress pages load slowly as of late. If I try to load a page or post, it will sit for anywhere from 5 to 10+ seconds before loading the page.

I checked my graphs and it appears a that around June 24-25 or so, the CPU utilization for apache started spiking. top’ing on a shell and loading pages shows the CPU% for httpd hitting high 90% during my page loads.

Note that WP Super Cached pages load very quickly with little to no CPU spike (which is expected).

I switched out to the basic WP 2014 theme and page loads are quick.

I tried disabling Jetpack and that didn’t help.

Any ideas?
