Symptoms

The Microsoft Exchange RPC Client Access service intermittently consumes 100 percent of CPU resources and stops responding on the Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 Client Access server. If you check Task Manager when this issue occurs, you notice that the Microsoft.Exchange.RPCClientAccess.Service.exe process maintains lots of threads (for example, 1,000 threads).
