Does adding 200 columns to the database increase the CPU utilization even though these newly added columns are not used in 'WHERE' clause in any queries?
My guess is that adding the 200 columns caused page overflows on just about every row. Accessing tables with lots of page overflows can cause high cpu. You should look at doing a reorg.
