This is interesting. What language are you using? If Java, I wonder if this is the garbage collector running. If C++, I don't have a good explanation (probably something in your teams' code). If Labview, I have no clue but suspect it might be memory management related (no idea how Labview actually does memory management under the hood).

EDIT: I assume you were referring to the cRIO's CPU usage. Is this correct?

It's LabVIEW, and CPU usage is on cRIO. I could understand if I was doing something with arrays and processing them, but I'm not.

We're about to have our first match. Fingers crossed. Everything on the field looks good so far.

Here is a play by play of Fusion in their first match:
Hooked to field
2 shots made in autonomy
alliance bridge to get balls
1 for 3
0 for 2
Coop with 624
...... 364 was fully operational

I watched the webcast to see you guys work!! I'm very happy that you're working, the engineer in me is a little sad because I want to know what the root cause of the problem was, but congrats on the co-op balance, and good luck in your future matches.
