How many Multisite blogs have you got and what’s your traffic?
The tl;dr of all things is you probably need a bigger server that you can manage and optimize.

This installation is operating 7 different websites.
I have just reconfigured this website and have only begun to experienced this problem today. I don’t think I need a larger server yet, my traffic is next to nothing. 14 visitors today 177 pages served.
I have already tried deactivating the plugins and reverting back the .htaccess (I did a bunch of 301’s for a subdomain that I moved to a new website) but that seemed to change nothing. I have other websites on this same server that are not running nearly as many processes but which carry more traffic. I have added Super Cache after this problem started and it did not lower the average processes.
My guess is there is a more functional state of being for this wordpress installation. Do you have any advice half-elf?

So… In order to display some of the post content from each blog on the front page of the blog network, I used the RSS widget to gather feeds from the other blogs in the network. I guess this lead to the index file getting pulled 7 times for each load of the home page.
I am going to try this plugin: http://ww.wp.xz.cn/extend/plugins/wordpress-mu-sitewide-tags/
to see if I can get it sorted out.

Oh wow, okay, that’s why you’re slaughtering your site 🙂 Don’t do that! What that does is loop through WP over and over and over to get the info.
