Yes.

This is also documented on my blog:

Very common.

 I have a server that periodically sees the MonitoringHost.exe process go to 100% and stay there.  This is a SCOM 2007 related process.  The server is 2k8 x64.  Have you seen this anywhere before, and if so is there a fix?  The process is easy to kill, and doesn’t seem to impact other services significantly while it’s pegged.

Are the solutions below the answer to the fix?

Operations Manager 2007-based agents consume 100 percent of CPU resources for the Monitoringhost.exe process

The CPU usage of an application or a service that uses MSXML 6.0 to handle XML requests reaches 100% in Windows Server 2008, Windows Vista, Windows XP Service Pack 3, or other systems that have MSXML 6.0 installed
