Yes a ubuntu 16.04 problem
Thanks oicurmt,
I ran top and the culprit seems to be
kworker/U16
I used Google and this is a well known problem.
The solutions offered are
update to 18.04 in the hopes that the bug has been fixed. Not attractive for several reasons.
Run updater
I tried but the update fails well into downloading repositories.
Upon reflection this has been happening for some time so my updates are probably not complete.
