Figuring out what's running in all those svchost instances

tasklist /svc /fo list

If you're using Sysinternals's Process Explorer, just hover over a svchost instance to see what it's hosting.

You can't drill down into the individual services, but that should help track down errant services which are consuming lots of CPU and/or memory.
