Why does show running configuration cause a spike in CPU Utilization?

Post Body
Seems like a simple print command (or what I perceive to be a simple print command) shouldn't be that disruptive. Is there something that needs to be calculated in the background?
"Some Cisco IOS commands cause a spike in the CPU utilization. These include:
The show tech-support privileged EXEC command.
The write memory privileged EXEC command (particularly if the switch is in a stack).
The show-running configuration privileged EXEC command on a switch stack master.
The debug privileged EXEC command to enable debugging of a feature. Printing debug messages to the console increases the CPU utilization as long as debugging is enabled."
