If you install the TweakUI power toy from Microsoft, there is a setting under the
"General Setting" called Optimize Hard Disk when idle".
This is enabled on my machine and I've not 'tweaked' it yet so this may well be the
default. The full description for this is from within the TweakUI exe is: -
The "Optimize hard disk when idle" check-box allows Windows to rearrange files on
the hard disk when the computer is not in use to improve performance
I would say if this is checked then there's your reason...whenever your machine goes
'idle', Windows starts to defrag the disk for you.

I tried this (without reboothing yet) but csrss.exe is still munching away. Maybe
it's working for the NSA and Pres Bustcher?
