Hello,

I keep noticing my CPU usage going up, and when I check in activity monitor the 
greedy process is labeled perl5.8.6, which could be one of several bits of 
software. The question is, if Top and Activity Monitor don't tell you which one, 
is there a way to find out?

In other words, how do I see which perl process is currently running and using a 
chunk of CPU cycles?
