Check what applications that are running and more so the cpu usage then you will have your answer.

Define "over" heating; it's normal for the device to feel warm to the touch when fast charging or heavily discharging, but, you shouldn't be able to cook on it. What temperatures are you seeing that you consider excessive, and how are you measuring them?

As a guide, the battery die temperature on my N900 sits just below 30 degrees Celsius when it's not doing very much, and peaks at about 43 degrees when I'm using it heavily (~500mA current drain), and those numbers aren't cause for concern. If you're over about 50 degrees, that is overheating...

Install Conky or something like it and you will see why it is getting hot, it is down to cpu usage 99.99% certain of that unless your charging all the time and you never indicated that.

@dignified
If you are browsing using OpenVPN your phone will be hotter than usual. I tried that yesterday.

Install Conky, which is aslike Task Manager on WIndows, which shows Processes running and CPU usage, install Conky and upload few screenshots of it, whn u feel the N900 is overheating..
