You have old cron jobs that are still running. Run ptree on cron and kill those children jobs. Also you need to make sure you have patch 105393-6, 105393-5 is broken.

run showrev -p this print all of the patches you have on your machine. If you have not updated your patches in the last month you will need to go to the Sun website and get the recommended patches for your OS.
The patch 105393-6 can be downloaded from the Sun website.
