[support] CPU usage

[Jamie Holly]

This almost sounds like a pre-fetching proxy being used by the school, 
such as Blue Coat. Those can be a real nightmare and are common at 
creating these sorts of problems. Just for an idea of what I am talking 
about, here's a post where a Wordpress site had a similar problem:

Blue Coat is common in government and educational institutions, as well 
as big corporations.
