Screen was consuming too much cpu power. In fact every 'screen' that I opened it put my load +1.0 so with 3 screens I had a 3.0 constant load... the problem was solved after CVSUP the latest port collection and make a 'portinstall screen' . This will fix the problem. DONT try the binary package because I've heard that has similar problems. Try to compile on your system the screen port!
