[Solved]High CPU usage by systemd-journald process

The systemd-journald is service in Linux OS that collects and stores the logging data.
On some Linux distributions it is often found that systemd-journald service is consuming more than 90% or some times nearly 100% of CPU resources.
So here's a fix for this problem...

Open your terminal and type following command.(You can use text editor of your choice.)

sudo vi /etc/default/grub

Find a the line that begins with
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=" "
There will be some parameters inside double quotation mark.
Add this parameter there...

pci=nomsi

And save this file.
Now run following command in terminal...

sudo update-grub

This will take little time to complete.
After this reboot the system and your problem is Solved!
You can check the usage of all processes in system monitor or htop program.

What is schedutil in Linux Kernel?

The schedutil is a fairly new cpu frequency governor found in Linux Kernel . This CPU governor controls how the CPU raises and lowers its frequency according to the demand. Shadeutil was introduced in linux kernel version 4.7 as an alternative of ondemand and performance. This is special because it makes the use of cpu scheduler utilization data . Load estimation is achieved through the scheduler's Per-Entity Load Tracking (PELT) mechanism, which also provides information about the recent load. The schedutil cpu frequency governor aims at better integration with the Linux kernel scheduler. This governor currently does load based Dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS).only for tasks managed by Completely Fair Scheduler(CFS(*CFS is a default scheduler. It handles CPU resource allocation for executing processes, and aims to maximize overall CPU utilization while also maximizing interactive performance. )). RT(Reaction Time) and DL (Deadline task) scheduler tasks are...
