two instances simultaneous, heavy CPU of pkg

Would any one know of a reason for two instances running of the same task? This goes on for hours daily, heavy CPU usage vs just one instance.

No jails are setup and running. WITR ' why-is-this-running' in ports, shows this type of example for the one that runs about 3 hours, both processes, and the one that runs about 6 hours, both processes ! Haven't had time to check on it all further.
