kded was using 90%-95% of total usage.

It's sending my CPU temp up high
enough to bump the BIOS overheat warning frequently.


You have to different problems:

· One, that kded is using too much cpu.
· Two, your cooling system can't cope.

The cpu cooling system has to be able to keep the cpu below the maximum temp even if it runs at 100% load full time. If that is not possible, the CPU or the operating system should be able to take measures like lowering the cpu frequency and/or decreasing the load (idle cycles, for instance), but I'm not aware of whether Linux can do this.
