Why is kded taking 87% of my CPU?

What is kded? I killed it with no problems afterward, then my cpu went to a reasonable level. Is it a necessary process?

2 seconds or so. First I thought I'd try KDE, but then again, Google does it faster most of the time.

I don't understand what that all means.
I'm not a programmer yet. Please explain why kded bogs down my cpu.

I found out that process kded is kat. That cleared up my problem.

IIUC, kded is the KDE daemon. It launches KDE components such as kat. With that said, kat was using up your resources. Removing it would solve the trouble
